That looks very similar to what I got a few days ago from two
repositories here, just that line three stated "could not connect to
server". A svnadmin recover helped for a few repos accesses, then
it started over again. Did not try a dump, but reconstructed a new
repos from working copies, considering the old repos being lost.
Only thing I can see so far is that removing the unused logfiles may
have been involved. (see thread "repos not accessible after log
files removed"; system: Win2000, SVN .27)
