im getting this error

same here. I tried to use SVN checkout with the URL from your video but nothing happened on the pull-down. has the address changed? I have no idea what I’m doing really, I just need OpenSim running offline
When I enter that URL into the svn checkout it says it couldn’t find the files, any ideas?
I have the same problem “Could not open the requested SVN filesystem”. What can I do? someone help…I’ve downloaded the opensim 0.6.6 installer but still doesn’t work.
Looked on the opensim site, and it’s WAY too cunfusing to find anything.
Any help? I’ll pay $10 to your paypal for a working answer.
The video is great, but from 2008. What changed and how does one get around it?
Thanks Hax! Great blog by the way!
When i run OpenSim, the cmd closes… help!

well, i got it all working, but when i remove my true internet connection IT DOESN’T WORK.
therefore defeats the purpose for what i need.
I have the same problem “Could not open the requested SVN filesystem”. What can I do? someone help…I’ve downloaded the opensim 0.6.6 installer but still doesn’t work.
Hey Yeah that “Error: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem” has anyone come up with a fix for that?
That´s cool – is it possible to double or triple the regular sim and prim size ?
When I run my compile it gives me errors. Anyone know of a reason why?
I’m not getting anything out of the SVN checkout. Did anything change for it? I downloaded straight from OS site, got the newest version, but there isn’t an opensim.exe
I am haveing the same problem when I try to do the svn check it says
Error: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
I dont know whats wrong, help?
can anyone help – am trying to use the svn checkout but each time it says i cant find svn file system. Have done and installed everything this video says to do
CJCartoons, that didn’t for me either. What i did, was downloaded the installable package opensim 0.6.6 and everything was fine. (thanks imohax for the help). Now i can have fun with 0% lag and no one bothering me. The only thing is… sculpted prims don’t work. Is that a known issue?

For people having problems with OpenSim.exe do the following.
1. Search for OpenSim.ini.example
2. Open it using wordpad
3. Copy all of its’ contents
4. In the bin directory make a new text document called OpenSim.ini NOTE it IS case sensitive.
5. Paste the info you just copied into the new text document and save.
6. Run OpenSim.exe again and enjoy.
Nevermind, got the solution. If you are using vista64, be sure to run OpenSim.32BitLaunch.exe rather than OpenSim.exe
I get the same No appender named error everyone else is getting here. Right at the end too, darn it. Anyone have a fix?
im doing all the instalations now buti just want to check is this pretty much lke second life i got banned of sl and i realy liked it
You need to save ‘OpenSim.ini.example’ in your bin directory as ‘OpenSime.ini’. I don’t know if this is right, but that’s what it told me to do when I opened it using command prompt.
hello wonderful i was really glad to find it so easily i got the same error that Sparkbouy got “log4net:ERROR XmlHierarchyConfigurator: No appender named [NHibernateFileLog] co
uld be found.
