title: How can I use TortoiseSVN on windows 7?
body: <p>I am trying to setup an SVN for the first time, I chose tortoiseSVN because my IDE phpdesigner 
   has built in support for tortoisesvn.  </p>
  
  <p>SO far I have installed the program, installed it and tried to set it up following many tutorials and reading the help file I still get this error no matter what I try to do, I even searched SO and google for this same error and I found many results,  I was unsuccessful in finding a solution though, does anyone have any ideas, this is very frustraing, maybe I was meant to never use SVN</p>
  
  <pre><code>Import C:\webserver\htdocs\cache to file:///C:/webserver/SVMRepository
  Error : Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
  Error : Unable to open repository 'file:///C:/webserver/SVMRepository'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried things like this in the browser svn://C:/webserver/SVMRepository and all it does is open up the tortouse repository browser and then says "Unknown hostname C"</p>
