Commit problem: process cannot access the file

["Talley, Brooks" <br...@frnk.com>]

I'm having trouble with svn 1.3.0; when doing a major commit with
hundreds of changed files, I am getting the error:
 
Can't open file 'C:\pub\subversion\db\transactions\724-4.txn\changes':
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.

Each time I try, the revision directory's suffix increments (this time
it was \724-4.txn\changes; next time it will be \724-5.txt\changes).
 
The error seems to occur at the very end of the commit process.  I've
tried doing a cleanup of the repository, and stopping and starting the
subversion server, to no avail.  Has anyone seen this?  Heeeeelp!
 
Thanks

Tell your on-access virus scanner to ignore the repository directory.
Not a sure bet, but it's a very common cause.
