svn log busted; how do I troubleshoot?

["Wadsworth, Eric (Contractor)" <wa...@fhu.disa.mil>]

Hi,

I just build a new svn 0.33.0 server, and imported my repository. After
adding some more stuff to it, I did "svn log" on a file, and it reports:

svn: Bogus date
svn: read_entries: CML parser failer ().
svn: Date conversion failed.

While everything else I've tried works fine, this feature is busted. Where
do I go to start troubleshooting the problem?

Thanks! --- Eric

"CML"?  Do you mean "XML"?

I think it's a problem with the .svn/entries file in the directory in
which you ran log.  One of the timestamps in that file cannot be
converted to time.  Did you modify the file by hand outside of
Subversion?  If not, then it appears Subversion can write a file that
it is not capable of reading.  Does you machine show the right time?
