Hi I was trying to create a repository with this command. svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs newrepo But, it is giving error as follows. svnadmin: Repository creation failed svnadmin: Creating db lock file svnadmin: Can't open file 'newrepo/locks/db.lock': Permission denied My SVN version is 1.5.6. The OS is Solaris 8 Anybody have any idea/resolution ? Thanks in advance, Rajesh ---------------------------- Hi, According to 'Version Control with Subversion', chapter 5, section 'Creating and Configuration Your Repository', the command should resemble: svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /var/svn/repos Where you specify the path to your repository in place of "/var/svn/repos". It does not understand your current location. HTH, John
