Re: "Couldn't open rep-cache database" (post commit FS processing)

Following up…

I tried changed the permissions on the repository to be more permissive, and changing the user/group of the Apache server: no help.

I also tried recompiling from source, but that did not help either.

To recap, I am getting this warning after every commit since we upgraded the SVN server to 1.7.1:

  Warning: post commit FS processing had error:
  Couldn't open rep-cache database
