cannot break lock due to no matching lock-token
Tom Jones
A file was created and locked. The file was unlocked and the project tagged.
the tagged folder was merged with an empty trunk and then the trunk checked out. A file in the project was locked, but later removed without being unlocked. Now the file does not exist in the trunk, but any changes to the trunk cannot commit because "cannot verify lock on path... ; no matching lock- token available. If you wish to break the lock, use the 'Check for Modification' dialog" appears and prevents any actions on the trunk (ie, delete all files). I have tried checking for modifications but none are listed (the file was deleted).
I cannot merge, delete, copy or anything. The lock that was there is not needed. How do I remove this lock-token or whatever I need to do?

Does anyone know how I can clean up a missing lock-token?

You don't say what client you're using, but it doesn't seem to be the
Subversion command-line client. Try asking on the relevant mailing
list for your client.
If you were using the command-line client, you'd use
"svn unlock --force". See these pages for details:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.advanced.locking.html
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.svn.c.unlock.html
Kind regards,

I am using TortoiseSVN, which directs me to this mailing list for discussion. Pardon my amateurishness, could I use a local command line client (while keeping Tortoise resident) to execute this?

Yes.
The command line client can be downloaded from here:
http://subversion.apache.org/packages.html#windows
I use the SlikSVN one, but it really doesn't matter which one you use.
Kind regards,

So, I am running subversion on a Windows2003 server. The URL for the repository is svn://servername/reponame. The file in question is reportedly in a project folder in a trunk (URL svn://servername/reponame/project/trunk/filefolder/filename.xyz) HOWEVER, the file no longer exists because it was deleted at some point, but the repository still thinks there is a lock on this non-existent filename.xyz. The file DOES exist in an earlier tag, but there is no link between that file and the current trunk.
I tried issuing commands using the standard DOS command prompt window. I can get info on the project folders (e.g. svn info svn://servername/reponame/project/trunk/filefolder/) but I cannot do anything with the filename that is associated with this error: "cannot verify lock on path... ; no matching lock- token available. If you wish to break the lock, use the 'Check for Modification' dialog" Checking for modifications does not help because the working folder associated with this lock no longer exists either.

If you have access to the the server have you tried using
svnadmin lslocks
and then
svnadmin rmlocks
?

The lslocks worked to show me three files with locks in the repository, none of which require locks anymore. Here was the session (limited to the file in question).
R:\svn\TestEng>svnadmin lslocks r:\svn\TestEng
Path: /Jet Pipe Servo Stands/trunk/Testsys/SOFTWARE/UTILS/Running_Average_(Shift).vi

R:\svn\TestEng>svnadmin rmlocks r:\svn\TestEng Running_Average_(Shift).vi
Path 'Running_Average_(Shift).vi' isn't locked.
Is my syntax wrong? Why does it report in lslocks that it is locked, but when I try to remove the lock it reports that it isn't locked?

ln1sub01 svn-xplorer> svnadmin help rmlocks
rmlocks: usage: svnadmin rmlocks REPOS_PATH LOCKED_PATH...
Unconditionally remove lock from each LOCKED_PATH.
So I think you should do something like
svnadmin rmlocks r:\svn\TestEng /Jet Pipe Servo Stands/trunk/Testsys/SOFTWARE/UTILS/Running_Average_(Shift).vi
i.e. use the full path of the file locked
G
Tom Jones
sys/SOFTWARE/UTILS/Running_Average_(Shift).vi
Path '/Jet' isn't locked.
Path 'Pipe' isn't locked.
Path 'Servo' isn't locked.
Path 'Stands/trunk/Testsys/SOFTWARE/UTILS/Running_Average_(Shift).vi' isn't lock
ed.
R:\svn\TestEng>svnadmin rmlocks r:\svn\TestEng /Jet%Pipe%Servo%Stands/trunk/Test
sys/SOFTWARE/UTILS/Running_Average_(Shift).vi
Path '/Jet%Pipe%Servo%Stands/trunk/Testsys/SOFTWARE/UTILS/Running_Average_(Shift
).vi' isn't locked.
Are the spaces a problem? Should I use something other than % for a wild card?

Since you are on windows you might want to just quote the paths:
R:\svn\TestEng>svnadmin rmlocks r:\svn\TestEng "/Jet Pipe Servo Stands/trunk/Test/sys/SOFTWARE/UTILS/Running_Average_(Shift).vi"

Removed lock on '/MobiPerl/New folder/New Text Document.txt'.

Not sure what else to suggest.
