Subject: repository corrupted ?
Hello,
after a crash of my sn server (Fedora 5, don't know the svn version
installed), i've just been able to copy my repository onto
a cd before a complete crash...
I'm trying to use this repository with an svn distrib (Version 1.4.3) onto
windows xp, but i get this error msg:
>svnadmin dump myrepository
svnadmin: Erreur de base Berkeley pour le syst?\195?\168me de fichiers
'D:/SVN/
vnrepository/db' en moving cursor :
DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
svnadmin: bdb: page 70219: illegal page type or format
svnadmin: bdb: PANIC: Invalid argument
svnadmin: bdb: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery
How to recover my repository ?????
Thank you !
Hi Denis:
If you have a copy made by something like the tar command or cp command,
then you have a Linux directory tree. I would not expect this to work on
Windows.
If your "copy of the repository" was made using svnadmin dump, then you have
a dumpfile and you can do svnadmin load to create a new repository on
Windows.
From your post, I'd guess that the first case is what happened. I would
install Fedora Core 5 on your recovery machine and see how far you get. If
you are lucky and you can re-create the whole system as it was, you might be
able to work with the copy of the repository. Then you can do the svnadmin
dump and load it on the Windows system if you need to.
This isn't a complete answer for you, but it might at least give you the
first step. Erik
