RE : SvnAdmin: impossible to load dump generated by cvs2svn
Hi Markus, Thanks a lot for your help ! ;-) I followed your recommendations by checking file validity with the help of md5 sum. It wasn't the same md5 sum on the two servers so I followed the procedure below : - regenerate dump file with CVS2SVN tool - generate md5 sum on an CVS server - compress dump file in TAR GZ mode - transfer the dump file in SFTP binary mode on SVN server - untar and unzip the dumpfile - generate md5 sum on an SVN server and compare md5 sum on both servers - load the dump file with svnadmin command So my issue is resolved. Cheers!!!

Re: SvnAdmin: impossible to load dump generated by cvs2svn
Julien, a dump file is designed to work with the commandline pipe. So it might be that the binary transport might have changed something. (if your sending os is different than suse) A safer way to transport it is to tar it before sending it over the wire: (1) cvs station $ tar czvf dump.tar.gz name of dumpfile Send the file via ftp binary. (2) svn station $ tar xzvf dump.tar.gz Import via svnadmin. If this still does not work, please send us the log files created by using redirects similiar to this: $ svnadmin load /path/to/target/repo dumpfile 2 /tmp/load.stderr /tmp/load.stdout Beste Grüße, kind regards, Volker Kopetzky vzk Beratung Germany Thailand smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
