subversive still has reference to old SVN repository server

Our SVN server has recently moved servers (from serverA to serverB). I did a "relocate" in Eclipse for the repository and moved it to serverB. SVN has been uninstalled from ServerA. When syncing everything is fine, however upon "update" I get the following in the console:

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.  
svn: Can't connect to host 'serverA.mysite.com': No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

So, somehow there is a reference to the old server stored somewhere, how can I find & change it?

Solution

  • I guess it's somewhere in the entries files of your WC (working copy). To find references to serverA.mysite.com, utilize the help of grep (in the root of your WC):

    grep -rni --include "entries" "serverA.mysite.com" .

    If you're on Windows, you might install cygwin or wingrep to do the work for you.
