[redmine][bitmani]how to create a new subversion repository ?

Added by John Smith over 14 years ago

hi,

I installed Redmine in using bitMani install package.
Now, I would like to create a new subversion repository in using redmine.

to create my repository in redmine, I do :

settings => Repository
SCM : subversion
URL: svn://localhost/myproject
login: someone
password: something

=> I haven't errors but when I wath repository section of my project, there is error message : The entry or revision was not found in the repository.

What is the problem ?
Bitmani install a svn server with redmine ?
redmine can create a svv repository ? or I must create it and after set the path in redmine ?

this is weird as I also use bitnami (native window) package but do not see your problem. Can you browse your repository via tortoisesvn? Do you have any spaces in the url (not sure but should not) ?

I don't see the repo created with redmine (with tortoise).
But in redmine if I set a path of a real svn project (I have created it with tortoise), I can see it
=> are you sure that redmine can create SVN repository ?

sorry, I did not read your read your question carefully in my nokia. So you want to create a svn repository inside redmine ? I think svn & redmine are separated systems, Redmine only fetches the contents to help us manage things. So you have to create the repository first.

ok thx, it is that I thought

But I have a problem : I can see my repository in redmine only if I open MS-DOS window and I set the command line : svnserve --daemon --root "c:\svn_repository".
=> it defines the repository path but the problem is if I reboot my PC or if I close the MS-DOS window, redmine reposotiry functions are desabled.
=> I think I must configure repository path in redmine SVN service but I don't know how to do.

Do you know if redmine can only do read SNV operations or if it can also do write operations ?

I solved the problem :
1- disable "redmineSubversion" Windows service
2- run the MS-DOS command line : sc create svnserve binpath= "C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\subversion\bin\svnserve.exe --service --root c:\svn_repository" displayname= "myRedmineSVNservice" depend= tcpip start= auto
3- reboot PC
=> it works but I don't know if it is a good practice...

Do you know if redmine can only do read SNV operations or if it can also do write operations (redmine is just a SVN viewer ?) ?
