E175002: The POST request returned invalid XML in the response: XML parse error

Hello,

I create a new repository on server with
    svncreate /path/to/repos/suite
and added the rights (everyone is allowed to read, I'm also allowed to
edit). Server reports:

> svn --version
svn, version 1.7.2 (r1207936)
   compiled Dec 5 2011, 22:26:40

I checked out an empty version 0 successfully (through apache) with
> svn co http://svn.myserver.com/suite

and client version reporting:

> svn --version
svn, version 1.7.2 (r1207936)
   compiled Dec 9 2011, 21:54:16

I then added a new directory with a bunch of files and wanted to
commit, but it complained with:

> svn ci -m "some comment"
svn: E175002: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E175002: The POST request returned invalid XML in the response:
XML parse error at line 3: not well-formed (invalid token)
(/suite/!svn/me)

May I ask for any hints of what could go wrong and how I could debug
the problem? I have seen various threads after searching with google,
but none of those that I checked provided any useful insight. (I work
with SVN a lot, but have never experienced a problem like this one.)

Thank you very much,
     Mojca
