Hello,

I am trying to make a backup of our SVN repository, which I have done successfully in the past, but I am getting an error:

I type: 
svnadmin hotcopy D:\solemma_diva D:\_DIVA\_backup\svnbackup --clean-logs

and I get:
svnadmin: E720002: Can't open file 'D:\format': The system cannot find the file specified.

I have checked to see if I need to update Tortoise SVN, but it doesn't look like it, although my next step is going to be to download, and recheck out.

I didn't see anything on your website about this error or backup errors.

Thanks for any help.

Kera
