When starting from cmdline
svnserve.exe -d -r d:\svn\mytools
all working fine.
Then I had tried to set it up to run as Windows service:
@echo off
set SvnHome=C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN
set SvnRepository=D:\Svn\mytools
sc delete SvnMyTools
sc create SvnMyTools binPath= "%SvnHome%\bin\svnserve.exe --service -r %SvnRepository%" start= delayed-auto type= share
service was installed but it is unable to start. All the time it is reporting an error
Error 1083: The executable program that this service is configured to run in does not implement the service.
I have tried to edit service cmdline using regedit, so tried to add double quotes arround ref to exe, tried to change cmdline parameters (used -d instead of --service, used both -d and --service) and so on. Sometimes reported errors are looks a bit different but it does not work anyway. :-(
Question is - how to setup it to make it working as service on Windows 7 x64? Is it possible at all? I mean - if that "--service" cmdline switch is able to work in svnserve?
Note: svnserve version is 1.7.9 (r1462340). Rest of TortoiseSVN components are 1.7.12.24070.
Thanks in advance.
Looks fine to me. My server is installed with this binary path:
"C:\Program Files\Subversion\svnserve.exe" --service -r "D:\Repositories" --listen-port "3690"
Did you try to install it outside of a script?
