RE: HELP: Upgraded to v 1.4.5 and now have a "Found malformed header in revision file" error

Been doing a bit of looking around for the root cause ... could this be
caused by the worker MPM being used with mod_dav_svn rather than prefork?

I can't find any references to this not being an appropriate configuration
other than this thread back in 2002:

http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2002-11/0391.shtml

Is anyone else running the worker MPM without any issues or should I
switch it to the prefork MPM?

Thanks again guys,

Dg.

Firstly apologies for the formatting of this email and the top posting - I 
have to use Lotus Notes which really doesn't lend itself to Internet 
email.
Thanks for the suggestion ... I've copied the whole repository over to a 
host running the old 1.3.2 environment to attempt the dump there - the 
dump fails on revision with the "Found malformed header ..." message.
Regards,
David.

Something you might try: install the older version again, svndump the
repository, install the new version, rename your existing repository,
svnload from the dump to recreate the repository.
The dump->load procedure may cure whatever was wrong.
