Re: Problem after upgrading to 0.33: mod_svn not working

HI Jostein,

thanks for your help. I have tried to do this already. It did not help.

But I have tried something else.

I have recreated my repository (dumped with version 0.27) with version
0.31 on an other machine.
Then I have copied back the repository to my machine running 0.33.
Funny enough now apache works fine.
But if I do this as root:

loki subversion # svn ls file:///home/subversion/repository
svn: Couldn't open a repository
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Unable to open repository 'file:///home/subversion/repository'
svn: Berkeley DB error
svn: Berkeley DB error while opening environment for filesystem
/home/subversion/repository/db:
Resource temporarily unavailable

I get this error no matter if I run apache or not at the same time. And
it can't be a permission problem because I am doing this as root.

This is pretty weird I think.

Dominik
