Re: "problem contacting the server" errors when performing logs-related actions

Hi Stefan,

I've found the problem after messing with the command line client a
bit - turns out it was a corrupted database file. Fortunately for me,
this is in db/revprops which is all plaintext, and I managed to follow
the file format and make a replacement (my backups didn't go back far
enough to a good version of the file).

For the record, in case this helps others .... The error message text
says only:

D:\Development\SVN\Releases\TortoiseSVN-1.6.7\ext\subversion\subversion
\libsvn_subr\hash.c

The "getting info from repository" dialog doesn't show the exact
revision (understandably for performance reasons). I found the
offending revision by running "svn log" on the repo's root url
("file:///D:/svn/"), so that it tries to read the log for every
revision. It goes through the whole repo's history and stopped just
before the corrupted rev with a "svn: malformed file" message.

anyway, it's fixed : ) cheers and thanks for the help, Stefan!
