I have a script which does several actions to a test repository. It
looks like this:
cd to wc
for 50 times do
generate three new files by copying an existing one (just copy, not svn copy)
add these three files
change one file again by copying one file over an existing one
svn ci
svn up -r HEAD
svn up -r PREV
reset repository by changing the revision number in db/current
svn up
done
When I run this script I at least get two or three times a "permission
denied" error which occurs at various actions of my script.

Maybe you are such a lucky guy - or you just have another virus
scanner (or configuration)...
FYI I have McAfee VirusScan installed (always the latest version).

Okay.

Please notice that I often get an ERROR_INVALID_DATA error (see my last
post). So maybe the cause of this is not the virus scanner but something
totally different.
