So I am hoping I am just doing something wrong, but I cannot seem to get the SVN's to work. I have Tortoise SVN and I go to a profile right click on the XML link select copy link address. Then I go into HonorBuddy and when I click SVN checkout I get the following errors Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'https://www.thebuddyforum.com/attachments/90-100-a/153847d1417010945-quest-90-92-smv-90-92_-xml' XML Parsing failed: Unexpected root element 'HBProfile' Can anyone help me out?
From the link it's a questing profile so why don't you just use Kick's ones from the Buddy store? In HB then simply "Load Profile > From Buddy Store > 1-100 Questing Profile Pack" and select the relevant one.
Thank you for pointing that one out for me. However I would like to know how to use all of the XML profiles in the forums as well and no matter which ones I try none of the XML file will work. I get the same errors over and over. I can get kick's 1-90 one to work with SVN checkout, but nothing with XML on it. I have watched the videos in the guides section, but those are old I suppose and do not show how to use the XML links. I am sure I am doing somthing wrong on my end, but as I have never used SVN things before I do not know what to check. Any help out there for a newbie?
No one can help me out? I am starting to worry that I may have just wasted some money on this program if I cannot get it to work
You are using the wrong link. You do not use the link to the file download. You need to use an SVN repository, it must be set up in a certain way. If an SVN is available for whatever you are using then the author should have an SVN link posted on the page.
Well now in trying to make TortoiseSVN read XML files I have messed up the config file in TortoiseSVN. Now Tortoise will not run at all and I have tried to uninstall and reinstall TortoiseSVN many times and it simply will not revert to the deaault config file. So this has just been a great experience.
Some user support information for TortoiseSVN can be found here: TortoiseSVN - Support Are you using the Control Panel / Programs and Features to install/uninstall Tortoise? Also try running the installer as Administrator. Be sure to restart your computer after the installation. Once you've got TortoiseSVN installed, go to the folder where you want to put the bot, right click and select SVN Checkout. It will pop up a window in which you put the URL to the repository, such as https://github.com/Deams51/GarrisonBuddyBeta/trunk The SVN options are found from the context menu (right click to show that menu) and usually have /trunk in the repository URL. If you are trying to use a profile, i.e., an XML file, you have to save the link into a folder on your computer. Select it from WITHIN Honorbuddy after is has launched and is attached to a WoW process. Choose your bot, then select Load Profile. If the XML file is not one from the store but located somewhere on your computer, select From File and find the file you want in the folder you saved it to. HTH
Another alternative to SVN updating is to use another program -- I use CYGWIN. CYGWIN allows you to run unix commands on windows. You can get it here: https://www.cygwin.com/ When installing CYGWIN make sure you type in "subversion" and "svn" into the packages to install. This is to ensure that SVN packages are installed. Generally you do not want to install all of Cygwin's packages (because there are just way too many). After it is installed, run cygwin and do the following: mkdir /home/svn [makes a directory in your home directory (default workspace).] cd /home/svn [After directory is made, navigate to that directory. ] svn co URL -> This runs the code to pull the files into the computer. Replace URL with the specific URL. Using your windows explorer, copy the SVN file in the home directory in cygwin and paste it into the proper hb directory. Rename if neccessary.
Thanks SO much to VennDann for helping me out! Now I totally understand what I need to get this all working Thank you again for taking the time to help a newbie out! You are awesome
