Basic Teamcity and SVN question

I am trying to set up teamcity for the first time and have run into a bit of an issue. I am trying to just run a really basic build that checks out from a SVN repository. I set up the SVN for the build and the Test Connection works fine. I then set up a basic build script. When I try to run the build I get the following error

*svn: Cannot replace a directory from within

I realize this is a subversion error, but the only references to this problem can find deal with merging or messing with your repository. In my situation I have a clean repository I set up specifically for this, I am not sure why this error is coming up. When I interact with this repository outside of Teamcity using tortoise I have no problems. I am just hoping I am missing something stupid, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Gabe

Hello Gabriel,

I think this problem could appear when directory (your project root directory) was "replaced" with another directory or deleted from repository at some revision. I would recommend you to enable "clean sources before build" option in build configuration and check whether it will resolve the problem. Then you may disable this option.

Thanks,
Alexander Kitaev.

Great, thanks a lot, that did in fact work. I thought I had tried that before, but since I am still learning this system it is possible something else was not set right at that time.

Thanks again!

Gabe
