        Hi
         
        I dumped one repository using the following command
        E:\svn-win32-1.5.2\bin>svnadmin dump E:\svnrepos\atlasprototype > atlasprotypedump
         
        When I try to load the dumped file into another repo I get an error.
        E:\svn-win32-1.5.2\bin>svnadmin load E:\svnrepos\testsvn < atlasprotypedump
        svnadmin: Can't set file 'E:\svnrepos\testsvn\db\txn-current' read-write: Access is denied.
         
        Can you please tell me how to solve this?

 
The problem is a Windows permission problem: the user you're using to write the new files is not allowed to write to the directory you're trying to create the new repository in.
 
How to proceed is a bit hard to tell without knowing more about your environment - are you serving your repos from apache? Svnserve? Are you running Visual SVN? I don't know enough about Windows to tell if just giving yourself write permissions to the directories in question would result in files inaccessible to the server process...
 
Cheers,
 
Ulli
