Format '5' says something about the Subversion version with which you
created the repository. The svnadmin version with which you created it
differs from the one which you are using to hotcopy with: the latter
doesn't know how to manipulate 'format 5' repositories and therefore
refuses to do so.

You may have 2 versions installed along side.

HTH,
