[TSVN] Checkout fails with TSVN 1.1.3 Win98 client and Linux Server

Hi,

I get the following error whenever I try to checkout a project with TortoiseSVN 1.1.3 running as a client on Win98SE:

> In directory 'C:/My Documents/Lizt/camel'
> Error processing command 'readonly' in 'C:/My Documents/Lizt/camel'
> Can't set file 'C:/My Documents/Lizt/camel/.svn/props/glosslo.txt.svn-work' read-only:
> The system cannot find the file specified

I have three machines running svn:

1) Linux server holds the repository, runs svnserve
2) Linux laptop accesses repository from command line
3) Win98SE desktop accesses server with TSVN

I have installed the latest stable versions:

1) Linux server runs svnserve 1.1.3 (r12730)
2) Linux laptop runs svn 1.1.3 (r12730)
3) Win98SE desktop runs TSVN 1.1.3 2502 MBCS

Server is using FSFS repository. URL for repository on my home network is svn://svn.home.lan/. There is one user configured in repository with a password. Configuration seems good because Linux laptop can access Linux server. Laptop has done all the following commands without problems:

* svn mkdir svn://svn.home.lan/Lizt
* svn import Lizt svn://svn.home.lan/Lizt
* rm -rf Lizt
* svn list svn://svn.home.lan/Lizt
* svn checkout svn://svn.home.lan/Lizt Lizt
* svn status
* etc, etc

But TSVN on Win98SE does the following:

* I create the folder C:\My Documents\Lizt in Windows Explorer
* Right-click on the Lizt folder
* Select SVN Checkout... from the right-click menu
* Enter svn://svn.home.lan/Lizt as the URL
* Leave the checkout directory set to C:\My Documents\Lizt
* Leave the Only checkout the top folder checkbox unticked
* Leave Head Revision selected
* Press the OK button
* TSVN prompts for authentication
* Enter username and password
* Tick the checkbox for save authentication
* Press the OK button

I see about twenty lines that look like:

Added C:\My Documents\Lizt\camel
Added C:\My Documetns\Lizt\camel\CAMEL80.AZM
Added C:\My Documents\Lizt\camel\GLOSSLO.TXT
.etc, etc...
Added C:\My Documents\Lizt\camel\README.TXT

These are all the files in the camel folder, but there are several other folders under Lizt that the checkout never reaches. Instead there is a pause of about 3 seconds and the error message that I reported above appears:

> In directory 'C:/My Documents/Lizt/camel'
> Error processing command 'readonly' in 'C:/My Documents/Lizt/camel'
> Can't set file 'C:/My Documents/Lizt/camel/.svn/props/glosslo.txt.svn-work' read-only:
> The system cannot find the file specified

I have tried the following workarounds:

* Removed the entire Lizt folder and tried again. Same problem every time.
* Powered off the machine, powered on, tried TSVN again. Same problem.
* Removed TSVN and reinstalled. Rebooted. Same problem.
* Fetched nightly build and found it won't install on Win98SE.

Any help appreciated.

Jon
