The error you report is:

 'D:\Development\SVN\Releases\TortoiseSVN-1.7.0\ext\subversion\subversion\libsvn_wc\wc_db.c'
 line 11039: assertion failed (base_status == svn_wc__db_status_incomplete)

That happens inside the function end_directory_update, which is called
from close_edit only if the editor didn't open the root.  You report
that it doesn't happen immediately after a commit and that makes sense
since the commit will likely leave a mixed revision working copy so the
update will not run this bit of code.

I'm surprised it happens when the update makes changes to the working
copy, I can't see how close_edit is called in that case.

You report that a commit makes the next update work.  Does an update
after the successful update work?

Which Subversion protocol are you using (http:, https:, svn:, file:)?
I assume you are using some sort of server.  Which version of Subversion
is the server running?  Is it a googlecode server?  Are you using serf
or neon?

Thanks, Philip.

Looking forward to it. Now it takes me quite some extra time to work with SVN.

The update problem has been solved.
The solution was to upgrade the server to a recent version.

Now, it works like a charm.

It's issue 4048, it may get fixed in a 1.7.x release:

I will tell my professor :-)

So, we just have to update the server and see if the problem is solved?

That's old (very old) and unsupported.  The client should still work but
I haven't built or used 1.0.x for years.

It won't be a googlecode server.  serf/neon is a client question.

Just to be clear: the error doesn't happen - as you correctly state - after a commit. Once I get an error (from updating any of the repositories), all other updates of all other repositories will fail. Until I do another commit and then - only that repository - will correctly update. Changes do not seem to affect this in any way. So, whether the update really comes with a new version of any file doesn't seem to matter.

Another lead that might make your search easier:
The error never occurs when updating subfolders. So, only if do an update of a root folder the error occurs.

Yes, it works for quite a while. At least several hours (although I'm not sure it is time dependent in any way) . At some point it breaks down again.

I sent the person that runs the server an e-mail regarding these questions.
It is a Linux server, that I know.

I'll get back to you ASAP.

BTW,
A colleague just did a fresh install of Tortoise SVN 1.7.1 and he has got the same problem. He uses the same SVN server as I do.

Thnx for all the help.

I got word from the person that runs the server.
He replied the following:

subversion 1.0.8-2.2 (r11084) on a Suse Linux 9.2

This depends on the client, not the server.

Oops!  I meant to say I can't see how end_directory_update is called.
