Cannot commit changes to SVN – Collabnet SVN Server

Just had an issue when trying to commit changes to SVN. Now using Collabnet Subversion Edge 3.2.2-3395.103. Have configured authentication using LDAP, that is Active Directory. Error message when trying to commit changes

svn: E175002: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E175002: Server sent unexpected return value (500 Internal Server Error) in response to POST request for '/svn/reponame/!svn/me'

Found this very strange since it was working without problems yesterday. Tried to restart both services several times, no help. Nothing found in the logs either.

Then trying to log on to the Edge admin console with my AD-user…not possible. Using the superuser, logged in, changed LDAP from using port 389 to 3268 as the console provides a hint to do: Hint: try 3268 for Active Directory servers . Restarted Apache and voila, up an running again.

My conclusion: AD …arrghh!
