I have an iMac running OS X 10.7.3. I have Eclipse Indigo and Subclipse 1.8.6 installed. I'm able to connect to and save files to our repository through Finder when I provide proper credentials. I am able even to check out projects. When I make changes to the checked out project, I see the update icon, I can even view conflicts in diff.

The problem occurs when I try to commit code, I am unable to get an exclusive lock, and the commit fails. 

org.apache.subversion.javahl.ClientException: svn: E204899: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E204899: Can't get exclusive lock on file '/Volumes/TECHSUPPORT/SOFTWARE/Java_Projects/db/txn-current-lock': Operation not supported
org.apache.subversion.javahl.ClientException: svn: E204899: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E204899: Can't get exclusive lock on file '/Volumes/TECHSUPPORT/SOFTWARE/Java_Projects/db/txn-current-lock': Operation not supported

I've tried everything I can think of, I've used both available SVN's. There doesn't seem to be much on the issue.

Thanks.

What version of subversion is installed on your Mac?

$ svn --version

I think you need to update the program: SVN upgrade working copy

    Turns out... SVN was on a Windows file share. Not a good mix. I tried a few utils to let me write to NTFS... fail. I fixed the problem by getting rid of the FS and putting it on a Linux box, and now it works great for everyone. – Half_Duplex Sep 13 '12 at 20:51
