That means you are using the SVNKit adapter option. It only supports fsfs
repository format via file:// protocol. Since you built Subversion, you
could try building JavaHL as well. See our FAQ for some general
instructions:

http://subclipse.tigris.org/faq.html

Otherwise, you should use the command line to dump/load the repository and
create a new one using SVN 1.4 and the fsfs format.

If the old SVN is installed via a package manager, maybe delete the
package? You would get much better help with this part of your question on
the Subversion users@ list. Be sure to state your OS though.
