SVN checkout fails with "chunk delimiter was invalid" - what can be done?

In the middle of the checkout (http://aima-java.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/), the client stops with an error, the exact error message reads:

org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: RA layer request failed svn:REPORT of '/svn/svn/vcc/default': Chunk delimiter was invalid

I have googled the error but was unable to find a solution. The only thing I am now aware of is that the issue is somehow caused by incompatible svn versions.

I use svn 1.6.12 from the regular ubuntu repo. The error is reproducible with multiple clients (tested with Eclipse and RabbitVCS) as they all use the same backend.

Any suggestions as to how to deal with this isssue and to avoid it in the future?

Thank you

I resolved this problem by turning off the wireless connection and using only a wired connection to make a large checkout. After doing that the problem went away.

For incremental checkouts we don't get the error on wireless or wired.

Have a look to this bug :
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2647

You may try to update/checkout in small chunk, folder by fodler maybe.
