title: install svn server on windows
body: <p>I want to install a SVN server on a Windows 7 64 bit machine (just for me).</p>
  
  <p>I used Slik SVN and set up a service with:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sc create svnserver binpath= "C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin\svnserve.exe --service -r H:\svn\repository" displayname= "Subversion" depend= Tcpip start= auto
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is listed in the list of services, but can not be started:</p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\Windows\system32&gt;sc create svnserver binpath= "C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin\s
  vnserve.exe --service -r H:\svn\repository" displayname= "Subversion" depend= Tc
  pip start= auto
  [SC] CreateService ERFOLG
  
  C:\Windows\system32&gt;net start svnserver
  Der Dienst reagiert auf die Kontrollfunktion nicht.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any idea why this does not work?</p>
