Hi Reuben,

I don't know what that error is. There is no format folder beneath trunk.

The only thing I can guess is that you originally got the source from svn when svn at Novell Forge was using ssh for anonymous access. They no longer have anonymous ssh access so you have to use https instead.

When they made this change at Novell Forge I updated the instructions here:
http://www.mojoportal.com/tortoisesvn.aspx

You should right click the top level folder and choose TortoiseSVN>Relocate
if the url is this
svn+ssh://anonymous@forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/mojoportal/trunk
then change it to this
https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/mojoportal/trunk

Hope it helps,

Joe

Hi Reuben,

I'm not sure about #1, for #2, the red exclamation point means the file is different than the version in svn or the folder contains files that are different than what is in svn.

When you do svn update it doesn't remove changes you made, it merges the version from svn with the version you have local. The triangle may indicate conflicts from the merge, you need to right click and look in the TortoiseSVN menu for the tool to resolve the conflict. You can tell it which version to keep. You should be careful there and maybe backup files before resolving the conflict so you don't lose anything. You might want to look at the tutorials for TortoiseSVN and learn about resolving conflicts before you start.

If it has been a long time since you updated you may also have some db differences and may need to run the upgrade script (and run the stored proc script for pgsql or MS SQL if using one of them). It all depends on what version you started with, you will have to review the upgrade scripts and determine which ones to run depending on the current structure of your db.

Hope it helps,

Joe
