403 Error while copying to create a Tag from a revision, with TortoiseSVN

First of all, thank you very much for XP-Dev. I and my team greatly appreciate this service. :-)

I’m having a problem tagging my repository. This is the first time I’ve attempted it.

I get the following error from TortoiseSVN when I try to tag my source:

Copy C:\blah-blah to http://svn.xp-dev.com/svn/Breakaway/tags/stable1_0, Revision 49
Server sent unexpected return value (403 Forbidden) in response to COPY request
for '/svn/Breakaway/!svn/bc/49'

I’ve successfully added, committed and downloaded code from the repository before and after receiving this error, so my (cached) credentials must be correct.

I’ve received this error several times (it’s 100% repeatable).

Any suggestions?

Which client are you using ?

I see your problem (do correct me if I’m wrong): You’ll need to move all your files/folders into the “trunk” directory and then copy it over to the “tags” directory. Subversion does not really like it when you try copying a folder/file into itself.

Do give a shout if you’re still stuck. I can drop you a mail with reference to your problem if you’d like that.
