SVN: “repository moved permantly” error when adding a new folder under root

I am having a strange problem with SVN: SVN is located in http://local/svn (linux + apache), where I have several repos: http://local/svn/repo1, http://local/svn/repo2 etc

My SVN client is in Windows and the folder is c:\mysvn.

When I commiting an existing sub-folder (e.g. http://local/svn/repo1/folder1), everything works OK!

When I add and try to commit a new sub-folder in Windows (e.g. c:\mysvn\repo1\folder2) I get the error:

"Repository moved permantly to http://local/svn/repo1; please relocate"

When I try to relocate, I get the same error.

This happens to all repos I have. It didn't happen before, but I can not recall any recent changes on the CentOS server.

Here is my /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf

<Location /svn>
    DAV svn
    SVNParentPath /var/www/svn

    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Subversion repos"
    AuthUserFile /etc/svn-users
    Require valid-user   
</Location>

And the access_log file from apache:

192.168.2.15 - - [21/Nov/2013:11:14:10 +0200] "OPTIONS /svn/archives HTTP/1.1" 401 482 "-" "SVN/1.8.4 (x64-microsoft-windows) serf/1.3.2 TortoiseSVN-1.8.3.24901"

Thank you

I finally found a workaround, based on this message

http://tigris-scm.10930.n7.nabble.com/TortoiseSVN-1-4-0-Build-7195-fails-when-Apache-sends-301-Redirect-td39856.html

I added the following line in subversion.conf
