Great that it works. :) I'm curious though ... have you any idea what caused the decompression errors? The message you posted came from zlib -- not Subversion's code -- and that has been very, very stable literally for decades. Is it possible that you just had the bad luck to have a broken version of zlib, way back in the dawn of time? If it had been a problem with the storage, I'm pretty sure you'd have noticed other issues, too. -- Brane
