The error message is generic for all repository types, most of which have a
"path". Would it be possible for you to share a screenshot of what you're
putting into the field? (possibly anonymizing any domain names)? Can you
check the Review Board log file after attempting to save it to see if there
are any errors listed there?

The name field is an identifier which will be used within Review Board, and
can be whatever you like.
