Les - It is an older Centos 4.8 install. I ran yum install subversion and copied the repository directory to the new server. I tried the import because I didnt have dumps. I don't know what I am doing. I tried the dump but got the same message svnadmin dump /svn svn: Expected version '3' of repository; found version '5'
Dave - I just installed subversion by running yum install subversion on this older centos 4.8 install. Is there a way I can tell what version the repository is? I would prefer to install the same version to avoid conflicts with the older OS. Dave Huang-2 wrote: > > On 2/22/2012 11:11 AM, svenk1 wrote: >> Hello.
