Vague error trying to open repository: "(20014)Internal error"

I've got an svn repository, called grabbers, I haven't used in a while, like maybe even a year, that I can't open.  All the other repositories on this machine work fine, including a copy, called grabbers.safe, of the repository directory I'm having trouble with that I made a long time ago.

This is the vague error message I'm getting in apache2/error.log when I try to open it:

[Wed Jan 16 07:40:51 2008] [error] [client 192.168.0.62] (20014)Internal error: Berkeley DB error for filesystem '/var/lib/svn/grabbers/db' while opening environment:\n
[Wed Jan 16 07:40:51 2008] [error] [client 192.168.0.62] Could not fetch resource information.  [500, #0]
[Wed Jan 16 07:40:51 2008] [error] [client 192.168.0.62] Could not open the requested SVN filesystem  [500, #160029]
[Wed Jan 16 07:40:51 2008] [error] [client 192.168.0.62] Could not open the requested SVN filesystem  [500, #160029]

More logs and trying to open the repository from the command line is available at: http://pastebin.ca/857220

I looked at the FAQ and ran:  od -j12 -N8 -tx4 log.<number> on the grabbers repository. It's version 4.4, which is the same db version that's in grabbers.safe.

The owners of all the files in both the grabbers/db directory and grabbers.safe/db directory are www-data, which is the user apache is running as.  I did check the owners of grabbers, grabbers/db, grabbers.safe, grabbers.safe/db directories as well.  They are all www-data.

I'm out of ideas here.

Well, by chance I found the 'svnadmin recover <repo path>' command.  It seems like the repository is working again...
