svnadmin: Reference to non-existent node '0.0.t1333-1' in filesystem

I am currently using SVN 1.4.5. with stand-alone server svn:// protocol.
Our server is running on a Windows 2000 server.

I am experiencing an issue with cleaning up transactions in my
subversion server.

If I list the transactions on our server, I get:

C:\>svnadmin lstxns \path\to\repos

1333-1

1103-1

If I try to remove the transaction (1333-1 for example), The transaction
fails to clean:

C:\>svnadmin rmtxns \path\to\repos 1333-1

svnadmin: Transaction cleanup failed

svnadmin: Can't remove '\path\to\repos\db\transactions\1333-1.txn':

The directory is not empty.

Listing the transactions again, I get the same transactions:

C:\>svnadmin lstxns \path\to\repos

1333-1

1103-1

If I try to get the info about the transaction, or try to remove it
again, I get the following errors:

C:\>svnlook info -t 1333-1 \path\to\repos

svnlook: Reference to non-existent node '0.0.t1333-1' in filesystem
'/path/to/repos/db'

C:\>svnadmin rmtxns \path\to\repos 1333-1

svnadmin: Reference to non-existent node '0.0.t1333-1' in filesystem
'/path/to/repos/db'

I know I was able to remove transactions that have appeared in the past,
but since the failed transaction 1103-1, I havn't been able to clean
these up... Anybody know why?

In addition to this, I also notice that the \path\to\repos\db\locks
folder has a lot of subfolders that are not being removed after the db
locks are removed (currently 1,052 subdirectories and 23 files).

if I run the command:

C:\>svnadmin lslocks \path\to\repos

There are no locks displayed.

This could be a related issue.

Is it safe to remove the locks directory (when the server is shut-down
first) and to remove the .txn directories from the transactions folder
if subversion is reporting no locks and no transactions exist?

Thanks in Advance,
