All,
I have sorted out the problem myself by using the following command,
svnadmin create --fs-type=fsfs <repo-path>
The above command will help you in creating the repository with the
filesystem not the berkely db. I managed to setup the SVN server... it is
all working fine on the server...
Now the trouble is...
Connecting to the SVN server from the client. I tried running the svnserve
on the server and used the following urls to connect to the server...
svn://IP/
svn://IP/<repository path>
But, no luck. It always came up saying the following, it works fine in
local. Do I need RSH / SSH enabled in the server where SVN server is running
to make it work?
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly
respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because
connected host has failed to respond.
svn: Can't connect to host 'IP': A connection attempt failed because the
connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or
established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks,
Kari...
