svnadmin verify hangs

[Robin Becker <ro...@reportlab.com>]

I am having a problem accessing one of several repositories on a freeBSD 
4.9 system with subversion 1.05 The repositories are normally accessed 
via https and have been working fine for months.

I tried

svnadmin verify /svn/private

to see if anything was up with the repository in question and the 
command hangs. Anyone got any idea what's going on and how it might occur?

Assuming it's broken is it ok to run svn recover without the verify?

No idea.  Are you able to debug into it and see where it's hanging?

How long does it hang for?  (I.e., how long before you decided it was
a "hang"?)  And what revision did it get to, out of how many?

Shut off all other access first, then yes.
