Commit failed + checksum mismatch

[ZedUbal]

Hello!

Recently we switched over to Subversion from CVS.  I have been a
longtime fan of smartcvs so I got smartsvn.  Everything seems to be
working well except some random errors that occur during commits.  I
am on Windows Vista x64 using version 5.0.4. Noticed these same
problems in 5.0.3 and 4.0.x.

I've read posts on similar problems from other users, but nothing in
those threads seems to apply or fix the problem.

Details:

Randomly during commits I will get a message "Commit failed (details
follow): Unknown error".  The commit fails and the files that I was
trying to commit are still displayed as "modified" in smartsvn.  The
more files I commit at once, the more likely this error happens.

After this happens I try to update and I get a message like:

Update to HEAD: working copy '<directory>' locked; try performing
'cleanup'

I go to that directory and I select Modify->Cleanup.  This always
removes the lock icon.  Now I can update and when I do most of the
files change to an "unmodified" state, so they were actually committed
successfully.  One file will still show modified.  When I attempt to
commit that file I get a checksum mismatch error.

This has probably happened to me about 30 times in the span of two
months.  It is very frustrating.  To fix the checksum mismatch I end
up marking the file as replaced.  The only other way I have found to
fix this problem is to check out the file in a new location, copy over
the modified file and then commit again.  It seems that the local
metadata for the file gets corrupted somehow.

I have a co-worker who is working on the same repository using
smartsvn on Linux.  He never saw any problems like this.  As soon as
he started working on the code in Vista (using smartsvn) he started to
see exactly the same problems on his machine.  It seems to be
something specific to windows or vista.  We've also noticed that
closing Visual Studio before committing changes seems to prevent the
error... still testing that theory.  

Any ideas? What information or log files can I provide to help you
debug this problem?

That sounds interesting and we would really appreciate your input here. Is
there any SVN integration in Visual Studio which might interfere with
SmartSVN?

Visual Studio is definitely a common application; do other VS users experience
similar problems in combination with SmartSVN?

I have seen the same problem on Vista Ultimate x64. At the time, I had
Visual Studio 2008 running. When I did an update from the repository on
another machine I saw that the file had actually been committed.

        I sometimes see the same problem, though much more rarely (once a
month or so).  But I personally use Eclipse (and Visual Studio only once
every few months or so).  While I do have SVN integration (I forget which
plugin) installed in Eclipse, it's not in use.  I had ascribed the problem
to the fact that my working copy is many gigabytes, and the commits can
include hundreds of files over flaky network connections.
        I've also recently seen a variant where the same thing happens
except that ALL the files do get committed except the update cannot run.
Possibly related, possibly not.
        I'm happy to log/collect files the next time either of these
happens.  Is there anything in particular you'd like me to report to you
when I see this kind of error?

We don't have any SVN integration in Visual Studio.  Using VS 2008.  
At home I'm running 32-bit Vista and I don't recall having this
problem.

I'm fairly sure it's possible to replicate this issue by cancelling a commit
at an awkward point. I have had issues when performing a commit on a remote
server (so it runs relatively slowly). If I click the big red cancel button
it does not cancel the commit straight away, rather it seems to run on
(maybe to the end of the current file)? But I have had serious issues come
up with my working copy from doing this. It looks very much like the commit
makes it to the server and gets assigned a revision number and all that, but
that SmartSVN does not show that.
Trying to do the commit again will result in a checksum mismatch. Updates
also don't do what they're supposed to - I can delete the local file and
perform an update, and the file that was committed gets pulled back down
from the server. But any attempt to commit that file at a later point (say
if a further change to the file was made) results in the checksum mismatch.
The only way to resolve the issue is to nuke the whole folder (including
.svn admin area) and pull it back down from the repository. Using the
SmartSVN functionality for 'rebuilding admin area' on Update does not help
either.

It's very possible the two issues are unrelated, but I think if it's
possible for the admin area to get corrupted on something simple like
cancelling a commit, then it's possible that it is also being corrupted by
other changes that happen mid-commit.

Sorry for the vague repro steps, but I'm unable to go through the process
and come up with the exact version right now.

        Now that you've mentioned it I've seen very similar behavior.
Cancelling a commit does seem to trigger this, as does a network connection
dropped with the commit in progress.

That sounds right to me... when I see this problem it is usually
because of some unexpected commit error.  Usually the message is
"Unknown error" but I have seen other errors about not having write
access to tmp files.  Canceling at an awkward point probably has the
same effect.    I've verified that this can still happen even when
Visual Studio isn't running so that doesn't seem to be related to the
cause.  So it seems that this occurs:

+ On Vista x64 or x86
+ After a commit failure or commit cancel

I'll try to post some screenshots of errors that I get when this
happens. Is there any log or other information that I can get that
will help diagnose this?  I'm happy to help because it happens to me
all the time and I would like it to get fixed soon. :)

        It also happens on Windows 2003 Server EE x86 and Windows XP x86.  I
don't think this is a SmartSVN bug, actually.  My suspicion is that it's an
SVNKit (the underlying library) bug.

An SVNKit bug or a Subversion bug would make sense to me as well.

At work we have moved our repository to a different computer in an
attempt to solve this issue (there was some talk about bad network
connections causing this). I have removed SmartSVN from my machine and
used the latest version of TortoiseSVN; that also fails but not as
frequently. A little over a week ago, I sent the connection.log file
to syntevo to see if they could detect where the issue was. I have not
heard back from them at this point.

It also happens on my test repository at home using Vista x64. Not
quite as frequent as at work but still a big time waster.

For my group at work it happens every day, for some of us on the
majority of commits. It occurs if Visual Studio is running or not; on
Vista x64 and x86 and XP Pro x86. We have found no correlation with
user aborted commits. In all the occurrences that I can recall an
"Unknown error" is displayed during the commit.

If we don't have a solution soon, my people will mutiny; the
frustration level is very high.

Yeah, I thought it was the repository at first, but we have a lot of
people on various Unix who have never seen this problem before going
against the same repository server. Some of them are using SmartSvn
too. SVNKit sounds like the broken thing... is there some way to test
out different versions of SVNKit with SmartSVN?

[syntevo Support-3]

We have now added more debug logging regarding this commit problem. Everyone
who is affected, please get the latest build from:

  http://www.syntevo.com/smartsvn/intermediate-builds.html

and have the system property smartsvn.default-connection-logging enabled, as
explained in:

  http://www.syntevo.com/smartsvn/documentation.html?page=vmoptions#vmoptions.svn


Once the problem has occurred, please send us the last portion of the
connection.log file and keep a backup of the whole file.

Btw, connection logging may slow down certain operations and the log file
might grow large, so from time to time you may remove the file and restart
SmartSVN.

Has anyone had a chance to run 6.0.1 without disabling status
cache/filemonitor? We have fixed a possible problem regarding commit failed
with "unknown error" and would love to get (positive :) feedback on that
issue.
