Temporary transactions going to wrong directory

[Ja...@sungard.com]

We have a situation that just appeared to start happening for no reason
what so ever. At some point during the day one of our repositories
wouldn't allow you commit any code.

 

After some investigation I worked out that the SVNServe had to be
running as an Admin user, but only for this one database. The others are
OK. After further investigation it would appear that the transaction
details are not being written to the db\transactions location. I have a
pre-commit hook that copies the contents of this directory but comes up
empty against this database.

 

So I guess the transaction is being written to somewhere that requires
admin access. But where is this and what's happened to the database
configuration to affect this changes? How to I make them go back to the
correct location?

 

Thanks

Jason

Sounds to me like you're jumping to confusions. Let's start over with  
the basics.

What version of Subversion on the server and client? What OS on the  
server and client? What error message do you see when you try to  
commit? Does it still happen if you get a new working copy? Does it  
still happen from a different client? Does it also happen if you  
commit directly from the server? Does it also happen if you use  
file:/// protocol on the server directly instead of using svn://?
