Eclipse + Subclipse: SVN can't open local repository

I have created initial import of my eclipse project to local file like this:

$svn import /home/miso/workspace/DatabaseManager/ file:///home/miso/svn/dbman -m 'Initial import'

Now I'd like to add this SVN repository to my Eclipse project (inside Eclipse itself). When I try to add new repository via SVN Reposistory Perspective (it came probably with Subclipse plugin) and navigate to file:///home/miso/svn/dbman then I get only this result:

enter image description here

What did I wrong? Thanks

What version of Subclipse are you using, and also which version of Subversion? - Bender the Greatest
SVN: 1.6.12. Subclipse: 1.0.7. I am using also some cvsdude servers where my old subclipse plugin works well with other projects. - Xorty
Shouldn't that me a checkout instead of an import? - Peaches491

This error happens when you use a version of Subclipse that is not compatible with the version of Subversion that created the repository.

This link should shed more light on it, basically just make sure your version of Subclipse can interface with whatever version of SVN you created the repository with.

EDIT I just did a quick read on Subclipse, my understanding is that any 1.x version of Subclipse should work with any 1.x version of Subversion. However, for 1.6 versions of Subversion you will need the 1.6 version of Subclipse.
