RE: Re: Server died. Any advice on getting our repository back again?

I had the same problem after upgrading subversion on solaris using the blastwave.org package. Here's the solution from the package maintainer which worked for me. Your path to db_recover will probably be different if you're not using blastwave packages.

It is possible to recover the database using the db_recover command
directly:

$ /opt/csw/bdb43/bin/db_recover -h /path/to/svn/repo/db

Your database most probably uses the 4.2 BDB. So I suggest this is what
you do:

- grab yourself a 1.1.4 Subversion distro - ZIP file
- unzip only the bin directory into c:\temp
- open the 1.2.0 Windows README
- follow the BDB upgrade procedure from the readme doc, using the 1.1.4
binaries.

After that you may start using the 1.2.0 release binaries.

Cheers,
