SVN 'path not found' error

SVN is acting really strangely ... I'm just trying to add a file ... and am curiously getting the following error.

'/fin/trunk/Proj.Web/Areas/App1' path not found

I'm using tortoiseSVN and all I did was tried to add a new file to the repository. What am I doing wrong?

Can't vote yet, but wanted to add that Critical Skill's LAST comment was what worked for me: there was a case-sensitivity issue with my URI that I didn't know of (two letters in the branch name needed to be capitalized). I think that's a bit silly (subversion should canonicalize naming to all-lower or something), but fixed it and suddenly the branch was found properly.

Have you confirmed the URl of the repository you are trying to commit? (You can use the repo browser in Tortoise to get the correct URL). Also worth checking if you have already added the parent directory of the file to the repository as yet. Sometimes (if you are using http protocol to access the repo) it is worth verifying the repository URL (from repo browser) and sticking it to the internet browser to see if you are able to access it via the browser. Helps see if the server is up etc., Hope this helps.
