General filesystem error: Bad database version, was: Re: swiggy bdb problems.
Hi
I have exactly the same error as the email in the thread I'm replying
to [1].
I did have a Redhat 9 box running David's RPMS and SVN::Web installed
using CPAN.
Yesterday I upgraded this box to Fedora 2, discovered that subversion
doesn't work on Fedora 2 with a K6 300 [2] so this morning I switched
the disks into a old celeron and did a force install of 4 i686 rpms and
now subversion works.
I have also built all the RPMs needed for SVN::Web to run and installed
these, however I now have this error when trying to browse repos using
SVN::Web:
General filesystem error: Bad database version: compiled with 4.2.52,
running against 4.0.14 at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/SVN/Web.pm
line 101
The happy ending below was a result of recompiling apache and subversion
-- I have installed the apache 2 SRPM from Fedora 2 and can't see
anything in the spec file about berkeley db's... does anyone have any
suggestions that might point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Chris

Problem solved, it was all caused by apr not having been upgraded to
the Fedora 2 version (it was still a David Summers version).
For anyone upgrading from RH/Fedora with David's RPMs to Fedora 2 I
suggest that you do the following:
1. Dump your repos
2. Uninstall *all* subversion related RPMS, inc compat-db
3. Upgrade to Fedora 2
4. Install subversion from Fedora
5. Create your repos and reload your data
Hope this saves someone some time :-)

I have discovered that this bug doesn't appear on a Fedora 2 box
that was upgraded from Fedora 1 rather than Red Hat 9, I have
submitted it to RedHat's bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=125623
But since a fresh install of Fedora 2 doesn't have this problem I
don't suppose many people will have it and perhaps I soiuld just
install Fedora from scratch... :-/
