Problems with corrupt repository?

Dear All

I have recently had to reboot the server that holds my svn server, repositories and the exported directories (these are used to host a web site). On restarting the server svn no longer works. For example svn status -u gives:

svn status -u
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Unable to open repository 'file:///var/subversion/csdweb/htdocs'
svn: Berkeley DB error for filesystem /var/subversion/csdweb/db while opening environment:
DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
svn: bdb: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery

If I then run svnadmin recover I get the following:

svnadmin recover /var/subversion/csdweb/htdocs
svnadmin: Can't open file '/var/subversion/csdweb/htdocs/format': No such file or directory

I'm not sure what to do next. Am I pointing the svnadmin recover command at the right directory for the repository?
What does this error message mean?

How do I fix the problem?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Paul
