Severe Problem with one repo

Hi,

I am using Subversion 1.6.12 (r955767 on an Ubuntu server. SVN has been
up and running a long time and had very few, if any, problems. Last week I
needed to make for new repos. Three went just fine.

The fourth has been a problem. Here is a history of what happened and what
I did.

I used svnadmin and created the repo on the server.

Using TortoiseSVN I checked it out to my Win7 desktopy. I created
trunk,tags and branches folders and committed them to the repo. Then I
took all the production code from our ubuntu server and copied it into a
subdirectory named public inside the trunk directory. Everything went as
expected until this point.

Then I tried to commit all this code to the repo. It failed due to lack of
disk space. This turned out to be correct, I freed up disk space deleted
the repo directory and started the whole process again. This time when I
went to commit all the code I got a Cannot write to the prototype revision
file of transaction '1-5' becasuse a previous reperesntation is currently
being written by another process.

I again deleted everything restarted the server, restarted my desktop. It
still did not work.

I looked through the code I was trying to upload and found that at one
point it must have been part of some repo because in many subdirectories
there were .svn folders. On my desktop I deleted them all.

This time I deleted and restarted everything and even used different folder
and directory names, I still get an error. Commit failed
Cannot write to the prototype revision file fo the transaction '1-1'
becasuse a previous reperesntation is currently being written by another
process.

Where do I go from here?
