Re: TortoiseSVN Crashes SvnServe

Hi List,

I still haven't solved my crashing problem and now am certain that it is
a bug in the svnserve program.

I created a brand new bdb repository on a win2k machine and installed
the 1.3.1 server. The spamming tool I used was a batch file consisting
of 50 copies of the line shown in the error below. Both the server and
the spamming batch are running on the same machine. This is the result
of the 11 th line of the batch file the first time it was ever run. Note
that the repository is completely empty, nothings has ever accessed it
other than the create process.

T:\bin>svn ls -v "svn://x.x.x.x/ts"
svn: Berkeley DB error for filesystem D:/Svn/repos/ts/db while opening
'changes' table:
Resource device
svn: bdb: D:/Svn/repos/ts/db\changes: Resource device

The second time I ran the batch file, this was observed on line 3:

T:\bin>svn ls -v "svn://x.x.x.x/ts"
svn: Berkeley DB error for filesystem D:/Svn/repos/ts/db while opening
'transactions' table:
Resource device
svn: bdb: D:/Svn/repos/ts/db\transactions: Resource device

and this on line 15:

T:\bin>svn ls -v "svn://x.x.x.x/ts"
svn: Berkeley DB error for filesystem D:/Svn/repos/ts/db while opening
'changes' table:
Resource device

and this on line 43:

T:\bin>svn ls -v "svn://192.168.0.66/ts"
svn: Berkeley DB error for filesystem D:/Svn/repos/ts/db while opening
'copies' table:
Resource device

All these errors are relatively benign, the server process did not exit.
I then ran two copies of the spamming batch file, one on the server
machine and one from another machine. I still wasn't able to crash the
server, but there were a lot of the same 'Resource Device' types of
errors. Making a repository using the fsfs database did not exhibit the
problems.

According to the tigris site I need a buddy to register this as a bug.
Can anyone verify these faults and help me add the bug?

cheers, Alex.
