SVN "Already Locked Error"

Question

When trying to commit a change to a repository ( where I am the only user ) I get an error

Path
'/trunk/TemplatesLibrary/constraints/templates/TP145210GB01_PersonWithOrganizationUniversal.cs'
is already locked by user 'admin' in filesystem
'/guest/gam/subversion/cdaapi/db'

I am the user 'admin'.

I have tried the following, all without success

• running a "clean up" from Tortoise SVN
• checking out a new copy

• using the "repo browser" to break locks, but no locks are shown ( as per SVN file locked by me, now cannot commit it )

  I am completely stuck now as I have a repository now that I can not commit any updates to.

  Any ideas how I fix this

  More Info, as requested :

  SVN Status command yields ( I have made edits to one file )

If your SVN repository is locked by AnkhSVN, just use "cleanup" command from AnkhSVN to release the lock! ;)
