RE: Error - Not Authorized to open root of edit operation

I ran into this yesterday actually and did a whole lot of searching on
google to find one web site that led me to the solution.

Check your authz file and make sure you gave yourself access.
If all else fails, try this:

[/]
Your_user_name = rw
* = r

Jiho

Subject: Error - Not Authorized to open root of edit operation

Hi,

I am working with SVN in "test mode" which means I am just getting it
setup and working with it for the first time. I created a new repository
and imported my project files.

I have SVN installed on a win2k server, my workstations are XP and we
are using TortoiseSVN.

My project structure is basically this:

ProjDir
ProjDir\forms
ProjDir\progs
ProjDir\reports
ProjDir\... (several others)

I imported from ProjDir and all the files went into the repository fine.

Then I created a new root folder called ProjWork which is intended to be
my working copy. I tried to checkout ProjDir and I expected I would get
a copy of the entire project directory tree into ProjWork. What I got
instead was "Error - Not Authorized to open root of edit operation."

So I copied the files down using the copy to working copy option. I can
do that with the files WITHIN the folders but not with folders
themselves.

I even tried SVNUpdate in the hopes that this would bring down all the
files but that gives me the error message again.

I am sure this is something stupid on my part but I can't seem to find
the cause of the error. Any help would be appreciated.
