RE: Error with quick-start experiment

If you want to use URL operations, the whole url should use ‘/’ separators. It now tries to open the local directory file:\\....something <file:///\\....something> , which certainly won’t exist because file: is not a valid device specifier on Windows.

You want to use something like

$ svn mkdir -m "Create directory structure." " <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR:\=\%25\trunk> file:///%REPOS_DIR:\=/%/trunk" " <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR:\=\%25\branches> file:///%REPOS_DIR:\=/%\branches" " <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR:\=\%25\tags> file:///%REPOS_DIR:\=/%\tags"

But it might be easier to just set the properly encoded path in REPOS_DIR

Thanks! There's another error now with replaced slashes:

C:\>svn mkdir -m "Create directory structure." "file:\\\%REPOS_DIR%\trunk <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR%25\trunk> " "file:\\\%REPOS_DIR%\branches <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR%25\branches> " "file:\\\%REPOS_DIR%\tags <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR%25\tags> "

                Hi,

You could use %REPOS_DIR:\=/% instead of just %REPOS_DIR% to replace all ‘\’ characters with ‘/’

(In batch scripts you might have to enable cmd extensions, but on the commandline this is enabled by default)

This is what I typed in my last attempt. I've made several attempts after the one that worked earlier.

C:\>set REPOS_DIR=h:\repos\my-repos

C:\>mkdir h:\repos

C:\>svnadmin create %REPOS_DIR%

C:\>svn mkdir -m "Create directory structure." "file:///%REPOS_DIR%/trunk <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR%25\trunk> " "file:///%REPOS_DIR%/branches <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR%25\branches> " "file:///%REPOS_DIR%/tags <file:///\\%25REPOS_DIR%25\tags> "

Can you please show exactly what you typed on the command line
when this happened?
