As well as what?

The first thing that comes to mind is case sensitivity. Subversion sees
'obj', 'Obj' and 'OBJ' as different folders.

Next check the properties (folder properties/subversion tab) of parent
of the 'obj' folder and make sure it has 'obj' included in the
svn:ignore list, and that the list items are separated with spaces not
semicolons.
