RE: The root "svn/TestSVN" is unknown.

Hello,

Yes I have tried the root_parents in the past and just gave it a try again. It 
gives the same error?

So my config lines look like:

root_parents = /path/to/svn-data/Projects : svn

default_root = TestSVN 

I can't figure this out so I have tried a standalone server and I am having 
problems there as well. I am wondering if I don't have deeper issues. Please 
see the following error summary when using a standalone server:

I start the server up with: bin/standalone.py -r /path/to/svn-data/Projects/
And get: server ready at http://localhost:49152/viewvc

I then try access this via a web browser and get the following error:
An Exception Has Occurred

Python Traceback

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/proj/cvs/svn_dists/viewvc-1.1-dev-20070228/lib/viewvc.py", line 3728, 
in main
    request.run_viewvc()
  File "/proj/cvs/svn_dists/viewvc-1.1-dev-20070228/lib/viewvc.py", line 252, 
in run_viewvc
    import vclib.svn
  File "/proj/cvs/svn_dists/viewvc-1.1-dev-20070228/lib/vclib/svn/__init__.py", 
line 25, in ?
    from svn import fs, repos, core, client, delta

Thanks for the assitance -reagan

You've confused the meaning of the svn_roots configuration option.  It's
supposed to point to a repository, not to a directory which contains
multiple repositories.

So, I think you need to tweak your svn_roots and root_parents config
variables like so:

   svn_roots =
   root_parents = /path/to/svn-data/Projects : svn
