Need more info.....

You are presumably serving your repository with Apache2 on a Unix-
like OS?

What log does it say that in?

Is your post-commit hook named "post-commit", located in the hooks
directory and executable by the www user?

Are you remembering that a hook script runs with no environment, so
you need to use absolute paths to all programs and files?

If you run your post-commit hook from the command line like this:

cd /path/to/repo/hooks
env -i ./post-commit

does it work? If not, it won't work when called from Subversion either.

Can you try if a simple one-line post-commit hook which writes into a
log file works?

echo hello >> /tmp/hook.log
