Hi Henrik,
Last week we rebooted the NAS server which hosts the disk where
(among other things) our svn repositories reside, in order
to enable quotas on that disk. Since that time, we have been
unable to work with these repositories. We see the following
error messages
---------------------
(trying local access)
---------------------
mseas(PaperWork)% svn update
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Unable to open repository
'file:///home/phaley/Papers/2011/ArpitVel/SvnPaper'
svn: disk I/O error
svn: disk I/O error
Are you able to do
ls -al /home/phaley/Papers/2011/ArpitVel/SvnPaper
?
Sorry that I forgot to mention it in my original Email,
but yes I can look in the directory, and I seem to
see everything I expected
% ls -al /home/phaley/Papers/2011/ArpitVel/SvnPaper

What about:
find /home/phaley/Papers/2011/ArpitVel/SvnPaper -type f -exec cat {}\; >
/dev/null
?
% find /home/phaley/Papers/2011/ArpitVel/SvnPaper -type f

To me it sounds as if your NAS has some disk problem which might be
hardware related, or, if you are lucky, only a logical error caused by a
clumsy uncontrolled boot. If you have a logical error it might be possible
to fix with some kind of fsck depending upon what kind of NAS you have.
regards Henrik
