It's difficult to tell what the problem is without a little more
detail. I'll assume that you reloaded from a dump file (or a backup of
the repository) in which case the UUID of the repository is the same.
However, you probably have the repository in a different path (different
server name, or something that changed the URL).
If that's the case you need to use the 'svn switch --relocate' command.
I'd guess that the working copy is checked out/updated from a later
revision than the restored repository has (i.e. some commits were lost
from the time after the backup was made). I don't think there is a
reasonable recovery technique other than checking out a new working
copy, then copying over the changed/newer files from your old working
copy and committing them.
