I need to work with an old repository, whose db/format contains

2

From this question, I understand that this means it's version 1.4.

I have only 1.5 executables, which produce a db/format containing

3
layout sharded 1000

I've tried to use the 1.5 svnadmin to verify the 1.4 repo, but it fails with

'vnadmin: Unknown FS type 'fsfs

If anyone's got any ideas on how to fix this, that'd be great. My current working plan is to obtain 1.4 executables.

The problem I have is that I've done a fair amount of searching, and I can't find any SubVersion 1.4 executable downloads.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Try http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=469&expandFolder=469&folderID=8100

tons of old releases in there

Thanks! Don't know how I couldn't find that, although I spent 20 mins looking.I d/l'd and installed. Unfortunately, I still get the same error: 'vnadmin: Unknown FS type 'fsfsIf no-one else can advise on that. I'll make this the accepted answer.

You might look at http://www.opensubscriber.com/message/[email protected]/8608506.html for that message. It can imply a corrupt backup.
