Subversion Update Issue

I'm getting the following error when I try to update my repository. Can someone explain what it means?

Command: Update
Error: URL
Error: 'http://mysvn/foo'
Error: of existing directory
Error: 'C:\SVN\MyProj\NinjectModules\Models' does not match
Error: expected URL 'http://mysvn/foo/NinjectModules/Models'
Finished!:

Solution

  • This kind of error message is usually associated with letter casing errors in the svn repository. Perhaps your svn is installed on a Linux machine and there you have two identical folders:

    (..)/mysvn/foo
(..)/MySVN/Foo

    And initially SVN checks out MySVN/Foo and it doesn't find the \NinjectModules\Models folder because it is in /mysvn/foo location
