Hi I have a SVN + Apache setup running on FreeBSD :
# uname -v
FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE #0: Fri Aug 6 09:37:33 CEST 2010
# svn --version
svn, version 1.6.16 (r1073529)
compiled Apr 13 2011, 09:43:52
# httpd -v
Server version: Apache/2.2.15 (FreeBSD)
Server built: Jul 23 2010 18:16:05
Today users had problems with locks that frozen the repo. TortoiseSVN
reported the following error :
Can't parse lock/entries hashfile
'/var/db/svn/repos/agot/db/locks/328/328675b94c4bb4aa73c5554051d076d2'
In the Apache error log file I have the following :
[Fri May 27 10:05:50 2011] [error] [client 10.1.8.180] The locks could
not be queried for verification against a possible "If:" header. [500, #0]
[Fri May 27 10:05:50 2011] [error] [client 10.1.8.180] Failed to check
path for a lock. [500, #200002]
[Fri May 27 10:05:50 2011] [error] [client 10.1.8.180] Can't parse
lock/entries hashfile
'/var/db/svn/repos/agot/db/locks/328/328675b94c4bb4aa73c5554051d076d2'
[500, #200002]
I also have fails to create new locks :
[Fri May 27 09:36:16 2011] [error] [client 10.1.8.144] Failed to create
new lock. [500, #200002]
[Fri May 27 09:36:16 2011] [error] [client 10.1.8.144] Can't parse
lock/entries hashfile
'/var/db/svn/repos/agot/db/locks/328/328675b94c4bb4aa73c5554051d076d2'
[500, #200002]
If I did an "svnadmin lslocks [path]", the command returns something
like "the file is malformed".
Un fortunately I didn't copy the exact message.
This happened for various lock paths. I tried to move the files in the
repo
("/var/db/svn/repos/agot/db/locks/328/328675b94c4bb4aa73c5554051d076d2")
to see if it works.
The repo was usable again, but locks were still an issue.
I tried to reproduce the problem on a test repository, no problem. I
asked the users who got problem locking files to try on the test repo
and on the production repo.
Everything get fine and I was unable to reproduce the problem.
Does anyone have an explanation about this issue ?
