error when trying to make a tag - corrupt repository?

Hi,

I have quite a large repository(~400 MB), that's in use for about a year.

Everything worked well, and suddenly, I wasn't able to make tags from any
working copy.
When I tried the command
svn copy ./ <repos_path> -m "bla bla"

I got the following error:* <repo_path> already exists*

concrete example:

svn copy ./
file:///d:/__SVN_REPOSITORY/RSSTExport/fast_compression/branch/separate_dictionary

svn: Path '
file:///d:/__SVN_REPOSITORY/RSSTExport/fast_compression/branch/separate_dictionary'
already exists

In fact when I try to run the svn copy command  as a WC -> URL copy command,
the command fails. Luckily the URL -> URL copy still works.

Does anyone have an idea why WC -> URL copy doesn't work and what could be
done to make it work?

Kind regards,
Robert Ioiart.
