RE: Can't connect to subversion server

Natlya,

Another possibility is that you are using 0.34+ apache modules
on a repository which was created with 0.33 or earlier and has
not been upgraded.

See http://svnbook.red-bean.com/html-chunk/ch05s03.html#svn-ch-5-sect-3.4

I'd recommend following that procedure to dump your old database
(using the old svnadmin) and reload it in 0.36 format (using the new
svnadmin). If you are creating a fresh database, you don't need to
bother with this, except you should make sure you're using the
0.36 svnadmin to create it.

If none of that helps, please run:
svnadmin --version
and let us know what that returns.

Cheers,
---Jim
