Kevin,
It appears that you checked out two working copies of the trunk
directory into directories named "orderDB" and "consultDB".
Notice how you have a space between file:///var/local/svn-repos/trunk
and consultDB, same with orderDB. That means that your checkout
command told svn to checkout the directory /trunk from the repository
into a local working copy directory named consultDB. Ditto with
orderDB. You now have two working copies of the trunk directory (which
are identical, unless you've made some local changes), in differently
named working copies. The working copy name, however, has no bearing
on the repository itself. It still considers the files to be located
in /trunk.
If you would like to create a directory named orderDB as a subdirectory
of /trunk in the repository, you can do so by using 'svn mkdir' (or
create the directory in your working copy and add it with 'svn add'.
To move your existing files into orderDB, you can use 'svn mv'
Hope that helps some.

P.S. Subversion has no concept of projects. All it knows about are
directories. Everything is in a single tree of files and directories,
and there is nothing special about the directories /trunk, /branches,
or /tags, except for the meaning you conceptually assign to them.
