Error: Found malformed header in revision file

Hi,

        Today I have experienced a weird problem with subversion... I googled
        a bit for it and found
        http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2004-12/0453.shtml ... So I joined
        the irc channel where I have been told to mail this list.

        Here is what has occured : On the client side I have tried to commit
        and got the following error on the first try :

commit -m "Add the same thing for backgroundFetchers" /home/nextgens/src/eclipse/Freenet 0.7/src/freenet/client/async/USKManager.java /home/nextgens/src/eclipse/Freenet 0.7/src/freenet/clients/http/StatisticsToadlet.java
    Sending /home/nextgens/src/eclipse/Freenet 0.7/src/freenet/client/async/USKManager.java
    Sending /home/nextgens/src/eclipse/Freenet 0.7/src/freenet/clients/http/StatisticsToadlet.java
    Transmitting file data ...
    svn: Commit failed (details follow):
    svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Found malformed header in revision file
svn: MERGE of '/svn/trunk/freenet/src/freenet': 500 Internal Server Error (https://emu.freenetproject.org)
    svn: Found malformed header in revision file
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/trunk/freenet': 500 Internal Server Error (https://emu.freenetproject.org)

        I supposed it was a temporary glitch and retried :

commit -m "Add the same metric for backgroundFetchers" /home/nextgens/src/eclipse/Freenet 0.7/src/freenet/client/async/USKManager.java /home/nextgens/src/eclipse/Freenet 0.7/src/freenet/clients/http/StatisticsToadlet.java
    svn: Commit failed (details follow):
    svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Found malformed header in revision file
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/trunk/freenet/src/freenet': 500 Internal Server Error (https://emu.freenetproject.org)

        Since then I have no access to the repository whatever I do. I am using subclipse and javaHL on the client side.

        On the server side: I know the postcommit hook has been triggered (It has generated http://archives.freenetproject.org/message/20070224.213047.3025a94e.en.html) in spite of the failure message on the client.

        I can provide both client and server side files, including apache logs if helpfull;
        I am using the FSFS backend and apache as the only "provider".

        nextgens@emu:~$ svn --version
        svn, version 1.4.2 (r22196)
           compiled Nov 10 2006, 17:39:50
        
        nextgens@emu:~$ svnserve --version
        svnserve, version 1.4.2 (r22196)
           compiled Nov 10 2006, 17:39:50

        svnadmin verify /path/to/repo says:
        [...]
        * Verified revision 11911.
        svnadmin: Found malformed header in revision file

        I have enclosed the revelant revision files in the mail.
        I hope it is a bug you will catch ... and not a hardware problem.

        Thanks in advance for investigating that bug.
