Repository error

we have created a new repository on a machine with a newly installed
subversion (1.4.6)  and get the following error when trying to access
it. Could this be an authentication error ? or is something wrong in the
repository setup ?
 
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn_test'
svn: Can't set position pointer in file
'/home/svnuser/repos/test/db/revs/0': Invalid argument

Looks like it might be the version of apache, this was on linux, the
system had 2.2.6.
We are going to try 2.0

Judging from the message, it is not authentication.  Check your
filesystem 
permissions and mounts.  If that fails, check your drives for errors. 
Does svnserve/apache (you don't mention which you are using) user have 
access to the path?
