One thing that can cause this error is when the OS permissions prevent Apache writing to the repository. The underlying error on the server is: "Can't open file '.../db/txn-current-lock': Permission denied" but it looks like we have a problem with the error reporting. I don't see anything logged in the apache log, and wireshark shows the response HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2011 01:22:45 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8o DAV/2 SVN/1.8.0-dev Content-Length: 207 Connection: close Content-Type: text/xml; charset="utf-8" <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <D:error xmlns:D="DAV:" xmlns:m="http://apache.org/dav/xmlns";> <D:(null)/> <m:human-readable errcode="13"> could not begin a transaction </m:human-readable> </D:error> That "D:(null)" is suspicious. -- Philip
