Hi Pavel,

Thanks for getting back to me.

After trying many things to no avail I had changed the VisualSVN
service to run under Administrator as a last resort to simply see if
it solved the issue.

I am however happy to report I have solved (or at least, identified)
the problem. The (software based) raid solution my server is running
is FlexRAID: it provides redundancy through parity-snapshots and also
performs drive pooling ie. it presents a collection of arbitrary disks
as a single logical volume. It was on this volume that I set my
repository folder - the idea being it would be protected by parity
like the rest of my data.

I am unsure whether the fault lies within apache or it's down to the
FlexRAID driver but whatever the case, this setup resulted in a lot of
failed commits. I have since moved my repositories folder to a
physical disk the OS controls directly and everything is working as it
should. In terms of back up I plan on using either svnsync or hotcopy
to replicate the repository on the RAID pool.

Hopefully this info might benefit some other people down the line.


cheers,
H
