Can you please update to 1.0.7? I'm not sure, but it may be fixed ;)

You mean you doubleclick on a file in the log dialog? Then the error
message is clear: since you don't started the log dialog from a working
copy there is no working copy with which the comparison can be done
("compare with working copy" is the default action, i.e. the command
used on doubleclicks).

The log viewer works. Just not that specific command. I guess I have to
deactivate that command if the log dialog is started "without" a working
copy.

Nothing - just a stupid misstake of the developer of TSVN ;)
