mismatch while reading representation

Hello All,

 

I posted this on the user list but got no reply. My apologies if this
is not the appropriate place to post.

 

I'm trying to migrate a subversion repository from a linux system to a
windows system using svnadmin dump and svnadmin load. Unfortunately,
when I get to a particular revision (a relatively large revision -
~700MB) I get the following error:

 

svnadmin: Checksum mismatch while reading representation:

   expected: 5a61669a554808ffb94c0542b79a6d5f

     actual: 5a55203a7809f159b4271a4dcec97684

 

I came across this on the web:

 

http://ilovett.com/blog/programming/subversion-checksum-error

 

which describes a similar error and recommends manually repairing the
database. One of the cited commands is:

 

db_dump -kp representations > representations.dump

 

which is to be executed within the db directory of the repository.
However, my repository does not have a "representations" directory or
file. Perhaps my repository is using a different database (i.e. not
Berkeley)? Any other suggestions as to how to migrate the repository?
