I assume that these commands work properly if you are logged in as svn
and you only get these errors when you sudo. If so, try adding the -H
flag to sudo so that svn's environment is properly set.

If that fails, try comparing the results of

sudo -h svn printenv

to logging in as svn and running printenv
