Failed to execute WebDAV PROPPATCH
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: At least one property change failed; repository is unchanged
RA layer request failed
svn: Error setting property ‘log’:
Could not execute PROPPATCH.
Has this error occured when you try to commit something to SVN? It happened to me, and while debugging it, I discovered that it was caused by the commit message containing newline characters.
If I tried commiting something like
“1
1″, I would get that error.
Solution: Don’t have newlines in your commit messages. If you have a better solution, please use the comment function!
UPDATE: This only happens in Windows (Vista).

R u using Vista? whyyyyy
I just ran into this problem with a project I’m working on at Google code … your solution worked perfectly!
FWIW: It also happens in XP.
I also ran into this problem when working on a Google Code project and skipping line breaks in the commit solved it for me as well.
I am running RabbitVCS SVN on Ubuntu 10.04, so apparently it’s not only a MS Windows problem..
Thank you!
