ERROR - SVNSYNC - Corrupt representation
Nikolay, Thomas
Hello Together,
SVN Server: 1.8.10-6+deb8u4
We have one master and two mirros which are synchronized with SVNSYNC with a post commit hook and SVNMasterURI in the another direction.
Sometimes it occurs an error like this in the mirror during synchronizing to the mirror.
Transmitting file data ..svnsync: E160004: Corrupt representation '76250 93 22 1831 399c810478a9fcb346a20c64e1ae547b 6eec9c0588cd2a67f552470447c2afc7b9e13931 76557-1oly/_d'
svnsync: E160004: Malformed representation header at /srv/svn/repositories/cst_dev/db/revs/76/76250:95
After the error we start a script which starts svnadmin verify on the mirrors and the synchronization is working again. During the error and the svnadmin verify is it not possible to checkout from the mirror.
I could not find any bugfix regarding this between the newest version and our version. Our Repository is very large and therefore we can not migrate to another version simply.
Also I could not found any mailing list topic about this behavior.
We analyze this issue since moths but we don’t find a solution. Does anyone know more or had the same error?

Anyway, it seems to me that rep-cache became corrupted in this repository. If that's the case, this problem is easy to solve. First and foremost, try to repair the repository this way:
- Rename the file "PATH-TO-AFFECTED-REPOSITORY\db\rep-cache.db" to "rep-cache.db-corrupted".
- Restart the server.
