Error: The system cannot find the file specified

svntortoisesvn

I'm just working as normal. Suddenly my commit gets this error:

Commit failed (details follow):
Can't open file
'C:\\...\\map\\.svn\text-base\\addressMatcher.php.svn-base':
The system cannot find the file specified.

I have done nothing fishy with my subversion folders, and cleanup doesn't help.

How do I fix this / What do I do?

Edit: I just snooped in the SVN folder and noticed that the aforementioned file is called "addressmatcher.php3.svn-base" for some reason.
I smell failed renaming operations by Eclipse.
Renaming the file to the correct filename gives a checksum error, so I undid the operation.
Any advice on how I might fix this without having to perform a clean checkout and patching everything over?

Hi i meet similar problem today.

cannot find the file \.svn\pristine\24\24fd530d4bd82341fb514ab912c9e10adbc4ad89.svn-base

And i use the simple way to fix this problem.

i look up this file did not exist under that folder.so i just copy a svn-base from other file and rename this with 24fd530d4bd82341fb514ab912c9e10adbc4ad89.svn-base.And then do the clean up operation. After that i meet another file missing.using the same way and at last i fix this problem. Hope it can help you

in other words the solution is copy a svn-base file and rename with the missing files name.
