What does 'svn info' show for the URL of the working copy?
What does 'svn status' show for the working copy?

Agreed. I've raised issue 4094:

Philip,
Thank you for getting back to me.

svn info:
Path: .
Working Copy Root Path: C:\svn_vschoech\dev\chartbranch21000
URL: http://server:8088/svn/dev/chartbranch21000
Repository Root: http://server:8088/svn
Repository UUID: ad1beaad-0fd3-4144-8000-4b573cec81f8
Revision: 44554
Node Kind: directory
Schedule: normal

Looking at this info made me aware of the problem: In our infrastructure, "server" and "server.tc.local" are synonymous. My working copy is checked out from "server", but the command that crashes svn refers to "server.tc.local". When I change the command to refer to "server", svn does not crash and the copy is correctly executed.

This solves my problem at hand, but surely svn should not crash in this case and either handle it as intended or exit with some helpful error message.

Thanks again!
   Volker
