I copied my entire $HOME/.subversion directory and a wc over to
a new system (no shared NFS directories here) and attempted an
'svn update'.
I got this error message:
% svn update
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/session.c:717: (apr_err=175006)
svn: Invalid config: unable to load certificate file
It turned out that the server certificate file listed in
$HOME/.subversion/servers wasn't on the new system:
[groups]
xyz = svn.xyz.net, svn
[xyz]
ssl-authority-files = /usr/share/ssl/xyz-ca/certs/ca.crt
It would be great if the error message could have said
been clearer
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/session.c:717: (apr_err=175006)
svn: Invalid config: unable to open certificate file
'/usr/share/ssl/xyz-ca/certs/ca.crt' for reading: file
does not exist.
Where the "file does not exist" would come from strerror().
Having the filename that's trying would help a lot.
