This seems doubtful if you're getting that error
message.

Yea. No kidding. You can only "svn copy" within a single repository.
# the working copy erv.schemas is part of the repository "ju-erv"
[bsmith_at_ws240:~/BRZ/wk]
$ svnurl erv.schemas/
https://zsvn.xxx.xx.xx/svn/ju-erv/ERV/Schemas/trunk
# I can't svn copy that working copy into a 'foreign' repository.
[bsmith_at_ws240:~/BRZ/wk]
$ svn cp erv.schemas svn://oberon/repository/erv.schemas.trunk
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Source url 'https://zsvn.xxx.xx.xx/svn/ju-erv/ERV/Schemas/trunk'
is from different repository
Depending on what you're trying to accomplish you might consider:
(1) svn export WORKING_COPY WORKING_COPY.exported
svn import WORKING_COPY.export file://my-local-repo/somewhere
This will get a copy of the sources currently in WORKING_COPY into
your local repo. The new copy will share no history with the old
copy. As far as subversion is concedrned every repository is a
universe unto itself.
(2) svnadmin dump ......
dumpfilter ....
svnadmin load ......
With some effort you could get the sources and their history moved
from one repository to another this way. But, again, their would be
no connection between these two copies of the sources.
