I added these but it doesn't seem to have made any difference.

Yes, it's using https so I've added this, also. Still no change.

I guess it is "Local Service" but giving that user full rights to both the repository and the checked out directory made no difference.

I added a couple echo statements to the post-commit.bat file that echo into a log file. When run from the command line that log file is created and contains the echoed text. Then, when I make a change and commit, the log file is NOT created. This makes me think the batch file is never running. It seems like something would show up in the Event Viewer, however, if it failed to run because of a permission issue. So, I don't think it's really a problem with the hook itself but rather VisualSVN isn't firing the hook. Could that be?
