Error loading a SVN project

Unread post by Lawson_TW »

Hello,

I have H&M 8 version 8.2.0 build 5620 and Tortoise SVN 1.9.2 and when load an svn project the following error appears:
The Subversion Repository
"c:\Testfolder" didn't contain a valid project file or the checkout was not successful.

How do I do it:

1. Load an SVN Project and open locally
I choose the subversion repository URL, this folder contains the normal folders (baggage, images, maps, topics) and the files *.hmxp, helproject.xsd and
helproject.xsl. The green message that the repository is valid is shown

2. Open/ Create VCS Project
I choose the Output file, a new folder in c:\ and press ok

Then a pop-up window appears with the following error:

The Subversion Repository
"c:\Testfolder" didn't contain a valid project file or the checkout was not successful.

We have a server repository and 5 H&M users. One of them can do this process without problems the other 4 cannot.

Can someone help me?

Thank You.

Hi Eduardo,

This is a known cosmetic bug that you can actually ignore. The bug is the message, not anything that has actually gone wrong. If you save and open the project you will find that everything is OK and your local working copy is fully functional. 8)
