Admittedly there may have been a problem there--on several of the larger repositories, it was necessary to use the "--bypass-prop-validation" argument. However, on our first "trial run" with this several months ago, the result seemed to work fine.
Then you didn't get the same file permissions and didn't import any
modified pre-commit, post-commit, or other such scripts. I suspect the
file permissions, especially if you did the "svnadmin load" as a root
user and didn't set "apache" write permissions for the repository
itself. Do some "ls --al" checks of the permissions on your old repo,
and review the Apache configurations or svnserve or svn+ssh settings,
however you provide access.
