Users attempting to check out files from a particular Subversion 1.4.x repository with Apache 2.2 on Windows 2003 have suddenly begun getting an error message in their log windows upon checkout with TortoiseSVN 1.4:

Error REPORT request failed on '/[path_to_repo]/!svn/vcc/default'
Error REPORT of '/[path_to_repo]/!svn/vcc/default': 200 OK (http://[server_name])

This started following an hd crash on the server and subsequent restore of about 10 subversion repositories. Only one repository is having this problem after an attempted working directory reconciliation. The repo owner reconcile their working directory with the repository by modifying/deleting the hidden .svn directories (though this was not advised).

I can't find anything on the Internets that represents my situation. The restored server is exactly as the original and no other repositories on this server are throwing errors. Any ideas on 1) what this error is and 2) how to fix it?

The incidence of the SVN error {REPORT of '/svn/xxxx/!svn/vcc/default': 200 OK} when attempting the Checkout or Update in SVN was eventually resolved on our site by restarting the SVN Server.
