You asked:
- To upgrade my server I should just run the "svn-1.3.0-setup.exe" at
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=91
without installing firts the 1.2.3 SVN?

So I assumed you didn't have SVN 1.2.3 installed. Of course you don't
have to uninstall that one, and of course you can use the one you've
already installed.

Again: you asked "How can I see which version
of BerkeleyDB I'm using?". You didn't ask for a way to find out if
you're using FSFS or BDB.
So please, ask the right questions and most of all, don't blame us if
you don't get the answers you expect if you don't ask the right
questions.

Yes. That's the correct method.

Does that mean you're using FSFS?

If you're using FSFS, just run the new installer and you're fine.
