Unable to load the Starteam Dump into SVN

Question

I have a dump created from StarTeam 2008 R 2 (10.4.7.-64) using svn importer 1.1-M8. However when I a try to import the dump I get this error:

* adding path : tags/Test/GH/13_Environment/Process/Capgemini EN Template - Business Case.doc ...
svnadmin: File already exists: filesystem 'help\db', transaction '2-2', 
path 'tags/Test/GH/13_Environment/Process/Capgemini EN Template - Business Case.doc' 

I can see from the svn admin load o/p that the file has been added already. Maybe the dump created by SVN Importer is not correct.

Can anyone offer any advice on solving this?

Answer 1

Have you searched through the export to see if it contains duplicates of that file? I have seen times where StarTeam will essentially contain duplicates of a file if someone added it to a project and also shared the file from a different project.
