Hi John, lists, I already asked users@svn list about a similar issue (see my message here: http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2006-01/0101.shtml). And today I have to admit: I'm lost. * The problem only appears on my production server (the test one with the same configuration & soft version is rock solid). -> Not easy for debug. * Apache restart seems a good therapy for this problem. * Quick statistics do not highlight a link between the number of access and the number of errors: Eg. today: 4135 accesses, 3 errors yesterday: 11097 accesses, 8 errors tuesday: 17407 accesses, 2 errors monday: 12672 accesses, 0 errors (yeah !) * I restarted the production server: change nothing. * I read subversion part of the code that create transaction directories and -correct my if I missed sth- the only thing that can influence directory creation (to remove execution right in my case) apache umask. I ready to run test in order to debug this situation, but since it is on a production server used by hundred of people, I have to do it carefuly. Manuel Ps: I someone reply, (s)he may want to add dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, or users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in CC. I re-send this message to users@httpd because my first message was bounced (I wasn't registered).
