Re: SVN wedged, please help

Garrett,

Thanks for pointing this subtle point. I did some more reading on
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ and your
point was explained in detail that using BDB is bad with NFS :( I'm
moving to FSFS and am running into
weird problems trying to dump from BDB and get the error message:

svnadmin: Berkeley DB error for filesystem /volume/projects/VOB/vobs1/db
while opening environment:
Resource temporarily unavailable
svnadmin: bdb: unable to join the environment

I am going to do more reading on BDB and force it to dump.

Thanks again everyone for all your suggestions and help

Cheers
