HELP! Can't commit anymore: svn: PROPFIND ... Service Unavailable
Hi!
I am working on a slightly outdated OpenSuSE system that has
subversion 1.4.4 installed.
Since an hour or so, I can't do any commits anymore. Everything else
seems to work, but no commits.
I even checked out a fresh working copy with
svn co http://localhost/svn/meinefc/branches/RELEASE-BETA test
which worked, but all I get on commit is:
Hinzufügen meinefc/test.txt
svn: Übertragen fehlgeschlagen (Details folgen):
svn: PROPFIND Anfrage fehlgeschlagen auf
»/svn/meinefc/branches/RELEASE-BETA/sites/all/modules/meinefc/test.txt«
svn: PROPFIND von
»/svn/meinefc/branches/RELEASE-BETA/sites/all/modules/meinefc/test.txt«:
503 Service unavailable (http://localhost)
svn: Ihre Logmeldung wurde in einer Temporärdatei abgelegt:
svn: '/home/koellpe/test/sites/all/modules/svn-commit.tmp'
Everything else works. checkout, update, access but no commit!
I have restarted apache, and I don't see any error
messages. Everything worked until an hour ago, there were no
configuration changes.
There are no log messages, no further error messages, no verbose
messages, no debug messages.
Does anybody have any idea how to solve this? This is extremely
urgent, since I am in the middle of a very complicated product
update and had to put the web site offline until finishing this update
operation

Yes. Everything fine, nothing suspicious.

Well, I kind of solved the problem. It stopped working for all checked
out copies of that user, even new ones. So I logged in as a different user,
copied the changed files into a different (existing) work copy, checked
in from there, switched user again, did an update and after that
everything worked again. I don't know why. Which is very bad.
The first law of version control is: It's either reliable or
worthless. Searching the web for the problem did not give good
answers, except that it occasionally happened to different people
under different circumstances, but in most cases without any solutions
given. Unfortunately I don't know how to reproduce the error, since
I did nothing unusual there. The only hint of an idea would be that it
started when I added a filename which I already added in a different
branch a week ago, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
I hope this does not happen again after updating the system to a more
recent version as soon as possible...

Did you check your system, e.g. if there is enough disk space, etc.?

Okay, this is late. I see you're using Apache as your transaction
engine, you're using SUSE, and you're using an old version of
Subversion. Sounds frightfully familiar. We use to have a similar
setup.
Are your repositories read/writable by the HTTP process? On SUSE,
these have to be read/writable by user 'wwwrun'. All files under your
repository directory need to be owned and read/writable by "wwwrun".
We had similar issues where files and directories were suddenly owned
by "root". We never traced down the issue, but we moved over to Redhat
and updated Subversion server to the most recent copy.
