SVN IMPORT secret incantation help

[spacemonkey]

Hi folks,

Trying to import my shiny new project to JoomlaCode, but not having much luck. Here is what happens, maybe one of you can correct me if I'm not using the right syntax:

Code: Select all

mitchy@gooberflasm:~/scm $ svn import trunk http://joomlacode.org/svn/jmemcache -m "initial import"
Authentication realm: <http://joomlacode.org:80> Document repository
Password for 'anonymous': 
Authentication realm: <http://joomlacode.org:80> Document repository
Username: spacemonkey
Password for 'spacemonkey': 
svn: MKCOL of '/svn/jmemcache/!svn/wrk/f67e0b5f-7c2e-0410-8da2-f8e11e71826f/jcache_storage': 501 Method Not Implemented (http://joomlacode.org)

This appears to be a personal problem, so I hope it is merely user error  And if it is, let's add it to the FAQ so I know where to look for it next time

Mmm, on a first check with TortoiseSVN I can checkout with no problem (completed at revision: 0). Will check

What about this http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,151422.0.html

A guide how to import the files the first time.

When I use the svn command on my Linux box, it complains about trunk not existing. Without trunk I can check again with no error (with user anonymous and no password).

Could it be that repository ACLs should be setup?

Looks like your link worked Robin - thanks for the pointer.

Somehow my checkout got messed up, as I couldn't commit anymore. I assumed incorrectly that I needed to import, when all I really needed was to just get a fresh checkout and add the new files.
