I think the problem is confusion over the parsing of names in http URLs.
The format is
repos/content
where the repos is (in your case
http://mysite.com/mySim1/
and the content is
mySim1/trunk
Notice that "mySim1" is part of the name of the repository, as well as
being a directory within it.
When you work locally, the repos changes to
file:///scratch/hapol/svnroot/
(because you called your repository "svnroot", not "mySim1"). The
content remains the same.
So notice that you need to specify
"http://mysite.com/mySim1/mySim1/trunk" to get to the same place as
"file:///scratch/hapol/svnroot/mySim1/trunk".
I hope this clears up the problem.
