The server restarted last night, since then I cannot do svn up or svn commit. svn: Can't connect to host 'zillerserv': Connection refused

I did a fresh checkout in another folder, it worked.

Any help? Thanks

Enter this into the terminal:

svnserve -d -r /home/user/SVNREPO

where SVNREPO is your repository folder.
