Re: SVN repositry wedged and recover command throws error

Hi Ben,

I do have backups, I'm just more concerned about keeping things reliable.

I was running SVN v1.05, which I understand uses BerkleyDB 4.2, and I downloaded the 4.2 tools.

Hi Ben,

Ok, I downloaded the db tools and after running the recovery received
the following:

        F:\SVN\db4-win32\bin>db_recover -vec -h f:\svn\repository\db
        db_recover: Finding last valid log LSN: file: 752 offset
        339806
        db_recover: Ignoring log file:
        f:\svn\repository\db\log.0000000747: magic number
         0, not 40988
        db_recover: Invalid log file: log.0000000747: Invalid argument
        db_recover: First log record not found
        db_recover: PANIC: Invalid argument
        db_recover: DB_ENV->open: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run
        database recovery
    

Question 1:  you *do* have backups, right?  :-)

Question 2:  what version of BDB was your repository using?  What
version of the tools did you download?  The 'invalid argument' thing
looks suspicious to me, like a version mismatch.
