CollabNet Subversion Edge – Could not open the requested SVN filesystem

I’m finally getting around to upgrading my Subversion server and downloaded the new CollabNet Subversion Edge server. It’s pretty cool, easy to setup and administer… although it would be more convinient if it would detect old Subversion installations and automatically import or convert them.

In setting up the new server I encountered this error message “svn: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem” while testing my new repository with the client.
The new server is a Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit system.

After finding this posting on CollabNet that talks about the parent directory for your repositores… I found that on my server the parent directory was the “E:\” drive (no folder name)… I changed that path to “E:\repos” and everything worked well.

Now to import all those projects…
