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? Scott
