Public bug reported: My repository has been going for about 10 years now (I have no idea which version I was using when it started). Until now it's lived on a Lucid VPS. Now I've moved it to a Xenial machine, and it doesn't work any more:
mat@winter:~$ svn co svn+ssh://rei.exon.name/home/mat/system/repository [email protected]'s password: svn: E125012: Invalid character in hex checksum mat@rei:~/system/repository$ svnadmin verify . * Error verifying revision 0. svnadmin: E200004: Could not convert '/ mat@rei:~$ svn --version svn, version 1.9.3 (r1718519) compiled Mar 14 2016, 07:39:01 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu If I rsync it over to various other machines it works fine: Lucid svn v1.6.6, Macports svn v1.9.4, Raspbian svn v1.8.10. But two different Xenial machines with svn v1.9.3 both fail. Subversion release notes insist that there is no need to dump and reload the repository. And the fact that at least one later version still works suggests this is a regression in Ubuntu rather than some backwards compatibility that got broken. ** Affects: subversion (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639406 Title: Old repository can't be read: svn: E125012: Invalid character in hex checksum To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subversion/+bug/1639406/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
