Hi all. I'm pretty much an svn noob. I usually only check in and out
code. However, the server that hosts our svn repo was upgraded this
past weekend and now svn is complaining when I try to check out code.
I've been tasked with fixing it since our normal admin is gone. I've
run svnadmin recover and it also complains. Here are the commands
i've run and the output i'm seeing:

As dev user:

$ svn co file:///var/spool/svn/xFlow/v6/main/cgi-bin/lib/src
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Unable to open repository 'file:///var/spool/svn/xFlow/v6/main/
cgi-bin/lib/src'
svn: Berkeley DB error while opening environment for filesystem /var/
spool/svn/xFlow/db:
DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
svn: bdb: Ignoring log file: /var/spool/svn/xFlow/db/log.0000003368:
unsupported log version 10
svn: bdb: Invalid log file: log.0000003368: Invalid argument
svn: bdb: PANIC: Invalid argument
svn: bdb: PANIC: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery

As root:

# svnadmin recover /var/spool/svn/xFlow
Repository lock acquired.
Please wait; recovering the repository may take some time...
svn: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
svn: bdb: Ignoring log file: /var/spool/svn/xFlow/db/log.0000003368:

svn: bdb: Invalid log file: log.0000003368: Invalid argument
svn: bdb: PANIC: Invalid argument
svn: bdb: PANIC: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery

I've read the svn faq and googled and can't seem to come up with a
fix. Any help would be appreciated.
