sorry - forgot to mention - FSFS. Our commits are not anything like 2GB
- the repo is 175Mb total.
It seems as if the last check-in has broken the repository. In it there
is a PDF file (which has been checked in many tmes before; and there are
many PDFs in our repo) that when the file name is clicked in the web
view (or wsvn), you get (I love the 'human-readable error code = 200002'):
<D:error>
<C:error/>
<m:human-readable errcode="200002">
Can't read length line in file '/usr/local/var/svn/specification/db/revs/51'
</m:human-readable>
</D:error>
But clicking on other files in the revision seems to be ok. I don't
understand this message: does it mean the actual file I just requested
(happens to be called adl.pdf), or something else?
If anyone is interested, you can try the links at
http://svn.openehr.org/specification/BRANCHES/Release-1.0-candidate/publishing/index.html,
the repo root is http://svn.openehr.org/specification.
This seems to me to be a serious problem - the repository is inoperable
at the moment, and although I can probably rebuild revision 50 (last
good revision) with dump/load, I have no way of knowing whether the
problem will not show up again, since no-one seems to know what it is.
