TortoiseSVN Log Messages offline repository
I have a local svn repo and the access to server is no longer available.
I cannot see the log offline although the .svn folder has several GB in size - When I choose the offline option, it shows "Unable to connect to a repository at URL '...'" and the dates "From:", "To:" are set to 1/1/1970 .
The Log Caching is enabled but there is nothing in the Cached Repositories.
Is there a way to see the log?
EDIT: Not GB but hundreds of MB

I suspect you're using the wrong terminology and you actually mean a remote repository. If TortoiseSVN did not cache log messages then there's no way to do it once the repository becomes unavailable.

I think the messages are there, the .svn/pristine contains a lot of *.svn-base files, amounting to several hundreds of MB.

I checked the pristine directory, there are only source files there, no messages. I checked the wc.db file too - there are no messages. It seems to be no way to get them offline.

Subversion is a centralised version control system. That kind of information is stored in the repository. What you have is a working copy. If you've lost the server permanently then you've basically lost all your history.

There seems to be no way as the .svn folder being the only source of information does not contains the log messages.
