We get an error when my CLIENT is getting the list of our Subversion SERVER repository, like this;

D:\temp>svn list svn://192.168.1.2/d:/svnrepository/r0
svn: E160043: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'svn://192.168.1.2/d:/svnrepository/r0'
svn: E160043: Expected FS format between '1' and '4'; found format '6'

and CLIENT has svn version 1.8.3 (r1516576)

D:\temp>svn --version
svn, version 1.8.3 (r1516576)
compiled Aug 27 2013, 19:43:20 on x86-microsoft-windows

and our SERVER svn and svnandmin version is same;

d:\>svnadmin  --version
svnadmin, version 1.8.3 (r1516576)
compiled Aug 27 2013, 19:43:20 on x86-microsoft-windows

d:\>svn --version
svn, version 1.8.3 (r1516576)
compiled Aug 27 2013, 19:43:20 on x86-microsoft-windows

What is the problem in this sutiation? (apologize to poor english)

Your svn-client, even it was upgraded to 1.8, declare itself as older version (1.6 ?)

You must to reboot Windows at least once before using this client
