Empty output of svn update in hook script

I'm running Apache 2.2 server (Windows) with SVN 1.6.2 and want to update my production server after each commit. Therefore, I've set up a post-commit hook like this:

svn update \\myserver\livefolder
exit 0

When I execute this post-commit.bat script on command line, it works fine. However, when the hook script gets executed by Apache, my production server isn't updated. To help debug the issue, this is how I amended the script:

echo %time% > mylog.txt
svn update \\myserver\livefolder
exit 0

Normally, in mylog.txt file, I should see something like

13:44:11.91
U \\wendy\wendyd\worddocs\temp.txt
Updated to revision 35.

which I indeed do when the script is run from the command line but when I run it via the commit operation, I can see only the timestamp. Isn't it weird that the svn update doesn't output anything? Not even "updated to revision XYZ"? At the same time, I think the command doesn't crash because all the subsequent lines (if there are any) are executed just fine.

Even more curiously, when I add some other server like \\testserver\testlocation to the script (after the failing production server), it gets updated fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Borek
