Officially SVN 1.6.11 went out of support YEARS ago (when 1.8.0 was shipped - 2013-06-18). However, 1.6.11 shipped on 2010-04-16 coming up on a DECADE of staleness. The last version of 1.6 - 1.6.23 - shipped 2013-05-31 - 3 years later than the version you're running.  Seriously, you need to upgrade. If your server is running an OS that only supports 1.6.x then it's likely got so many security issues by now that it, too, is seriously compromised and needs an upgrade.  UPGRADE.
