SVN E155016 The working copy database at ... is corrupt


I solved the issue with a cleanup + revert + update (in that order)


Cleanup

Try svn cleanup in your working copy

New checkout

Try to make a new checkout to different place. If new checkout works properly, delete the corrupted one and replace it with new checkout.


When I removed the complete folder, repeated the checkout I got the same error....
So it seems consistent!

However,I was checking out into . (currentDir)

When I then checkout out into another directory it worked fine!?!?!
So much for transparent misbehaviours.....
