What's the exact error message TSVN shows you when the commit fails?
Maybe that will give you a hint?

Another thing: make sure you don't have a proxy in between. Most proxies
don't know about DAV requests and therefore Subversion clients can't
talk to the server. Also check the proxy settings in the TSVN settings
dialog if you actually use a proxy. TSVN/Subversion don't use the
explorer proxy settings as many programs (including browsers) use.

Also, if a browser works, that doesn't mean Subversion clients can talk
to the server too - a browser simply get's a html page returned by the
Subversion server, but Subversion clients get 'real' data returned and
work completely different.
