We'll need a lot more information to debug this.  Can you tell us what
happens in Apache's error_log when this occurs?  Tell us something
abut the pathnames in your repository?  Can you access it over other
RA layers (file://, svn://)?  What was the "proper locale"?  What was
the cvs2svn command line?  Were there any warnings from cvs2svn?  What
was the exact version of Subversion, both client and server (don't say
"latest", say the version number).

More data, please.

Did this paragraph have any constructive purpose?

Look: We appreciate bug reports, but to post a bug report with almost
no useful data for tracking down what actually happened, and then on
top of it to make hand-wavy statements like the above, is just not
helpful for anyone, you included.

Please try again.  We're listening...

Thanks.

Was the the very latest cvs2svn -- r8757 -- or the one that came with
the Subversion you got?

Sorry, I didn't intend to be harsh. I like subversion but I'm one of the 
people who are pushing to replace ClearCase with it and I want 
subversion to make a good impression =).

It seems that converting all the filenames to UTF-8 before running 
cvs2svn.py fixed the problem. That script should probably include such 
conversion itself.
