We have been using subversion for about half a year, and it has been
working like a charm. But suddenly we got errors while doing hot
backup of one of the repositories.
We are using subversion ver 1.1.2, running on a solaris box.
The repositories are located on local disk.
The following shows the printout from the hotcopy operation:
> svnadmin hotcopy repository/cvl backup/cvl
subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:2345: (apr_err=70008)
svn: Can't read directory entry in
'/export/subversion/repository/cvl/db': Partial results are valid but
processing is incomplete
>
Running 'svnadmin verify repository/cvl' goes ok. It doesn't seem
to be any problem with the repository, it's "only" the backup of it
that failes. We have some other repositories, for which the same backup
procedure works well.
The following is a file list of the directory mentioned in the error
message:
> ls -la /export/subversion/repository/cvl/db

The file strings seems to be quite large (>2GB), may this be a problem?
The directory created by the failing hotcopy looks like this:
> ls -la /export/subversion/backup/cvl
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 4 www www 512 Feb 3 09:45 .
drwxr-x--- 11 www www 512 Feb 3 10:20 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 www www 512 Feb 3 09:45 conf
drwxr-xr-x 2 www www 512 Feb 3 09:45 dav

Does anyone have a clue why the hotcopy suddenly stopped working on
one of our repositories, and (most importantly) how to fix it?
Regards,
Johan
