Check the apache error log here. You will find additional information
about what's wrong.

But if "Ü" is a file, then of course you'll get an error: You can't
check out a file, only folders.

Is your server running Linux? Then you must make sure that the apr-iconv
library is installed properly. Otherwise Subversion can't convert your
paths to/from UTF8 and then you'll get such errors.

No, seriously: Subversion runs just fine with such file/foldernames. I
do it all the time here. (if you check my last name, you know why :) )
