David,
Thank you for your quick reply.
 
The output of command:
 df -T /altroot/ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository
 
is the following:
 
Filesystem    Type   1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
engarchive:/export/engarchive/ENGDATA
               nfs   528417056 384972448 138160448  74% /altroot/ENGDATA

Ask yourself whether you need a hard copy. If you do, print it double sided

What type of filesystem is /altroot/ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository located 
on?

Can you send the output of:       df -T 
/altroot/ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository

It might be that the filesystem type doesn't support file locking.

My suspicion at this point is that it's an NFS mount - not all versions of 
which fully support locking.

Dg.

Hello, 

I connect to a remote file system through a XVC terminal emulator. 

Platform:               UNIX linux 
Subversion version:     1.1.4 

Following my previous e-mail below, 

I was able to establish that the problem resides in my repository. 

Whenever I issue any subversion command to the repository like: 

        svnlook tree /altroot/ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository 

The problem now I face is the following: 

svn: Error opening db lockfile 
svn: Can't get shared lock on file 'locks/db.lock': No locks available 

It seems a file locking problem... 

Many thanks 
Paolo

Hello, 
I have been using subversion for while now and without problems. 

But recently when I was trying to commit my changes (svn commit -m "DeFrac 
final changes"), 
from my local working copy, I got the following error message: 

svn: Commit failed (details follow): 
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL 
svn: Unable to open repository 
'file:///ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository/maintv2/trunk 
<file:///\\ENGDATA\DeFRAC\defracdev\repository\maintv2\trunk> ' 
svn: Error opening db lockfile 
svn: Can't get shared lock on file 
'/ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository/locks/db.lock': No locks available  

I tried to issue the recover subcommand (svnadmin recover 
/altroot/ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository), but 
still I received the following message: 

Repository lock acquired. 
Please wait; recovering the repository may take some time... 

Recovery completed. 
svn: Error opening db lockfile 
svn: Can't get shared lock on file 
'/altroot/ENGDATA/DeFRAC/defracdev/repository/locks/db.lock': No locks 
available 

I would appreciate your help. 

Many thanks 
Paolo
