How to call a python script in visualsvn server precommit hook running on windows

I Implement a python script for the pre-commit hook to detect the commit message, author, changed path then throw exception or error in specifics cases.

I want to set this script pre-commit.py in the VisualSVN server Pre-commit Hook using this command in the Hooks 

C:\Users\momo\Desktop\pre-commit.py %1 %2

When I want to commit I got this error Access Denied looks like pre-commit hook doesn't recognize my syntax

enter image description here

Python scripts are not considered as executable files on Windows. You should wrap them around in Windows Batch. For example, a pre-commit hook script can look as follows:

set REPOS-PATH=%1
set TXN-NAME=%2
"C:\Python27\python.exe" "C:\Repositories\MyRepository\hooks\pre-commit.py" %REPOS-PATH% %TXN-NAME%

This Windows Batch script will run Python script located at C:\Repositories\MyRepository\hooks\post-commit.py and will pass the %1 and %2 arguments.

Put this code into your repository's \hooks\pre-commit.bat or \hooks\pre-commit.cmd file manually or via the VisualSVN Server Manager console:

  1. Start the VisualSVN Server Manager console.
  2. Right-click a repository and click Properties.
  3. Click the Hooks tab.
  4. Click the Pre-commit hook and click Edit.
