I'm using tortoise SVN to version my projects. since they have some common libraries I'm using the external propriety in order to link the common repository. If I use the string with the absolute path everything works fine (but other users cannot update correctly since they map the repositories in a different way. Then I tried to use a relative path, but i get this error:

Error: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
Error: Unable to open repository 'file:///Z:/..DMF_FRAMEWORK/Repository'

file:///Z:/DMF_FRAMEWORK/Repository 2.WebDev\Framework

../../../../DMF_FRAMEWORK/Repository 2.WebDev\Framework

the repository is located in Z:/DMF_FRAMEWORK/Repository, how can I set the relative in order to update correctly?

thank you Andrea

  • Can you share the exact values you've used? – Álvaro González Oct 15 '13 at 09:15
  • they are the real values: the repository of the project is Z:/COMPANY_NAME/PROJECT_NAME/Repository/2.WebDev/Framework (this is not a real path) the common code is in Z:/DMF_FRAMEWORK/Repository – andrea Oct 15 '13 at 09:30
  • Please note that you can edit the original question when you need to provide further info; code in comments is unreadable. Whatever, you say you got that error when using a relative path but all your paths begin with `Z:/` thus are *not* relative. – Álvaro González Oct 15 '13 at 09:37
  • The string I'm using ins svn:externals is ../../../../DMF_FRAMEWORK/Repository (as mentioned in the question) that's the relative path that is not working – andrea Oct 15 '13 at 09:45
