Cannot commit to svn repository - "Can't write activity db"

[ejucovy]

When I try to commit to the Xinha svn repository, I get the following error:

$ svn ci -m "..."
svn: E000013: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E000013: Can't write activity db

It sounds like this is some sort of permissions error on the server:
