It's difficult to say exactly. That error only occurs in one place,
in the working copy code where it's trying to find the root of the
working copy. It means that the entry for the Project directory was
supposed to have a URL associated with it, but there wasn't one. Can
you possibly show us the output of 'svn status' and 'svn info' on the
top level Project directory?
The Project/.svn/entries file would also be interesting to see...
