Your repository is confused to use the CVS SCMTool, but you're generating an svn
diff. You'll need to fix the repository's configuration to use SVN and not CVS in the
admin UI.

Hello,

I am facing this issue while trying to use reviewboard with svn.

>> You'll need to fix the repository's configuration to use SVN and not CVS in the

In the admin page I have set the repository type to be CVS only.

I am getting this error on post review of the request to the RB server.
