Subversion supports Kerberos.

Windows can now request a Kerberos Granting Ticket from a cloud Kerberos KDC and use it to access file shares and AD services that natively support Kerberos.

Double-check that the entered URL is correct and actually leads to your Subversion server (the Apache HTTP Server that serves your repos). Most likely, the server isn't listening on port 443 on the IP interface 192.168.3.235, so your connection attempt is refused. It's also possible that some firewall or antivirus application blocks the connection. The error can occur when you enter https:// protocol in the URL when the server doesn't support HTTPS and listens only on port 80 for plain HTTP (and vice verse), or when the port in the URL is incorrect. So my first suggestion is to double-check and confirm that the URL is correct and leads to your server instance. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

Error 'Corrupt node revision ...' on your screenshot typically occurs when the repository is corrupt (I mean the repository on your server, not the working copy on your workstation). So most probably the repository "tecmec" is corrupt and needs to be restored from backup. Restoring from backup is the easiest approach to solving such problems. To confirm if the repository is corrupt, you can run the `svnadmin verify`[1] command on the server. Something on the screenshot makes me think that your server is VisualSVN Server, and in that case you can use the Test-SvnRepository[2] PowerShell cmdlet or run repository verification from the admin's GUI or by running a scheduled background job[3].

The error "... does not support the HTTP/DAV protocol" usually occurs when the URL passed to SVN client doesn't point to an SVN repository, but to something else (a web client or just some web page). You can try the same URL (http://svn/singularis/trunk or http://svn/) in your web browser for clues. Here is an example: [[[ C:\Users\Lyalyakin>svn info https://apache.org/ svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'https://apache.org' svn: E175003: The server at 'https://apache.org' does not support the HTTP/DAV protocol ]]] https://apache.org is not a Subversion server and you'll see a Welcome to The Apache Software Foundation! web page when you open it with a web browser. This should be the very first troubleshooting step when you get the error "... does not support the HTTP/DAV protocol". It helps you find out what exactly you are reaching with the provided URL. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

It says that you will be unable to load the incrementally dumped revision 91 into an empty repository because it depends on some changes introduced in earlier revisions. Additionally, you will be unable to load it into a repository that is missing some of the revisions the revision 91 depends on. You may encounter this and other similar warnings (e.g., about mergeinfo) when you dump revisions partially using the `--incremental` option. However, there should be no issues if you attempt to load all revisions 1:91 into a new repository. Thank you. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

The directories conf/, db/, hooks/, locks/ belong to repositories, not working copies. So these are version-control databases, and you don't want to lose them. I would suggest that you discuss with the user on what to do next. Perhaps the computer also has a Subversion server solution running. Or the repositories were abandoned some time ago in the past. The repositories can be copied as is onto a new computer. But you need to ensure that the server that makes them available to end users is stopped. Or you need to be absolutely sure that no one makes write operations in them. > I was unable to locate any of the binaries or services you mentioned > "svnserve.exe" or "svn.exe" in C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin.

Yes, the part of moving TortoiseSVN - as a client application - is very straightforward. But since we discovered that the server computer has some Subversion repositories, I recommend that you find out if you also need to migrate any Subversion server solution (with the repositories) and if TortoiseSVN components play crucial part in it (or is it used as just a client).

Is the drive dedicated to a working copy or a repository? A working copy can be identified by the existence of the hidden .svn directory and a set of working files and directories from the repository (the actual data stored in the repository for a user to work with). Similarly, a repository can be identified by the existence of the following files and directories in its directory: [[[ conf/ db/ format hooks/ locks/ ]]] I'm asking these questions because TortoiseSVN and some other client distributions have the Subversion binaries packaged with them (usually in C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin for TortoiseSVN). The binaries include the `svnserve.exe`[1] program that can be used to expose the Subversion repositories over the network using the svn:// or svn+ssh:// protocols. The binaries such as `svnserve.exe`, and `svn.exe` are not used by default, but if you have the `svnserve.exe` running, then additional steps may be required to migrate this custom solution. So it's possible that a previous admin used `svnserve.exe` packaged with TortoiseSVN to implement server capabilities or some other custom solution. E.g., you may open Task Manager to find out if any `svnserve` processes are running. If you see any such processes, additional steps are required to migrate the installation because you don't only have TortoiseSVN (a client), but also a small server installation with its own conf files and repositories, perhaps running as a Windows Service. If you don't have `svnserve` running and don't have any repositories on the server (i.e., it has only working copies), then installing TortoiseSVN 1.14.x on the new computer and checking out new working copies[2][3] should be enough. You may find the URL used to check out the working copy with the `svn info ` command[4] or opening TortoiseSVN Repo Browser[5] at the root of the working copy. > If possible, we need to migrate this application to a brand new Windows 2019 > Server which you have confirmed won't support their existing version of > TortoiseSVN therefore a brand new client install is required. > > Therefore in terms of migration i.e. the data repository.

The usual approach when you haven't built any scripts around TortoiseSVN or did not enable `svnserve.exe` is as follows: 1. Install TortoiseSVN on the new computer. 2. Check out a working copy. I included the section above to make sure that when migrating TortoiseSVN (a client program), it won't be a surprise for you that it potentially had some services or scripts built around it which you also need to migrate. You need to double-check if a previous admin built a custom solution around TortoiseSVN or not. If not, then migrating TortoiseSVN (or any other Subversion client) is trivial. Hope this helps.

TortoiseSVN is a client application, not a server. So I'm afraid that it's unclear what you mean by "hosts". Do you use Subversion binaries packaged with TortoiseSVN to serve Subversion repositories over the network? Note that version 1.8.0 was released in 2013, and AFAIK the whole 1.8.x branch had reached end of support before Windows Server 2019 was released. It's recommended to upgrade the client to the latest version (it's 1.14.x now). To install or upgrade TortoiseSVN you usually need to download its installer and run it. See https://tortoisesvn.net/downloads.html and https://tortoisesvn.net/faq.html#uninstallfirst. PS Wrong mailing list. TortoiseSVN has a dedicated mailing list. See the details at https://tortoisesvn.net/community.html. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

AFAIK, there are various tools for calculating the Lines of Code (LoC) metric. I haven't tried any of them myself and therefore cannot suggest any in particular. However, searching the web for something like 'Subversion Lines of Code statistics', 'Subversion Lines of Code reports' or 'Subversion Lines of Code metric' shows different ways to generate such metrics. BTW, what exactly are you going to do with these lines of code metrics? Do you plan to use them to measure productivity of the developers? What's your use case? I hope that you know that measuring lines of code is - putting it lightly - is not the best way to measure productivity of a developer: https://stackoverflow.blog/2020/12/07/measuring-developer-productivity/#h-the-pitfalls-of-output-measurement.

AFAIK, there are several tools for this, but I cannot recommend any in particular. I'm pretty sure that searching the web will give a lot of various options. I also know that Visual Studio 2019 (16.4 and later) and Visual Studio 2022 support the "Lines of Source code" and "Lines of Executable code" metrics. I haven't tried this myself, though. Relevant sections of the Visual Studio documentation: * Code metrics values: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/code-quality/code-metrics-values * How to: Generate code metrics data: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/code-quality/how-to-generate-code-metrics-data * Use the Code Metrics Results window: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/code-quality/working-with-code-metrics-data (Obviously this will work only for Visual Studio users).

The timeout issue can occur when both URLs use HTTP(S): 1. The destination repository receives a transaction and has to commit it. This operation can take some time. 2. svnsync keeps the connection to both source and destination repositories over HTTP(S) and waits for a response from the destination server. The transaction is still being committed. 3. The source server closes the connection due to a timeout because svnsync was still waiting for the response from the destination server. To solve this problem, you need to switch the local URL to file://. See examples below. You normally run svnsync sync on one of two servers involved in the replication (source or target/destination). And the URL to a local repository has to use the file:// direct local access protocol. Local URL means the file:// URL to a repository on the server's disk. When one of the URLs is local, svnsync does not need to contact both servers remotely via HTTP(S) and one of the repositories is always accessed directly on disk. This rules out potential timeout issues such as the one described in your email. Here is a syntax example from SVNBook: [[[ svnsync synchronize DEST_URL [SOURCE_URL] ]]] The target or source repository URL has to be local: If you run this command on there source server, then the SOURCE_URL has to be local: [[[ svnsync sync "https://svn1.example.com/svn/MyRepo; "file:///C:/Repositories/MyRepo" ]]] If you run this command on the target server then the DEST_URL has to be local: [[[ svnsync sync "file:///C:/Repositories/MyRepo" "https://svn1.example.com/svn/MyRepo; ]]] Based on my answer at https://stackoverflow.com/a/70059081. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

Re: Upgrading visual svn server from 3.7.0 using svn 1.9.7 - how?
Hello, See the download <https://www.visualsvn.com/server/download/> page which says that VisualSVN Server 4.2.2 [[[ Includes Apache Subversion 1.10.6. ]]] If you want to find out the version details of your currently installed server, use the VisualSVN Server Manager console or check the README.txt file. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/60887240/761095 Opening cmd.exe and simply running `svn --version` is an incorrect way to find out the version of Subversion the server is built with. This will only show the version of the svn.exe client and depending on your %PATH% variable and current directory can show you the version of some other Subversion client (e.g., TortoiseSVN). Run the *"%VISUALSVN_SERVER%bin\svn.exe --version"* command instead - it will show you the version of svn.exe which comes with VisualSVN Server.

How does `--changelist` work with `svn revert` and other commands?
Hello, Subj. I assume that if I run `svn revert --changelist foo`, it will revert all the changes made to items listed in 'foo' changelist without asking me for paths to the items I want revert. Is this correct that `svn revert` requires me to provide paths to the items I want to revert in my working copy? Why?

"E175012: Connection timed out" error might occur when you use `svnsync` and source and target repositories are both accessed by HTTP(S). My guess was that Thomas was getting this error. When both URLs are HTTP(S), `svnsync` works unreliable. It creates two connections to the servers and the local server will drop the connection on timeout in case there are delays on the side of remote server. The local server has to wait untill the remote server fully receives the transaction and commits the data and may drop the connection if it takes a bit longer. In most cases, such problem could occur when syncing larger revisions but it also depends on the bandwidth. Using file:/// access to local repository helps avoid this problem. > I'm guessing the dump/incremental-load/update-r0-revprops surgery went > wrong.

All those details are essential to provide advise or suggestions. Please, specify the exact and complete wordings of the errors you receive and a brief summary of actions you did prior the error occured. Note that the state of a working copy that requires a clean up, does not mean that the working copy is corrupted or anything. A clean up might be required in case your working copy is in inconsistent state. This could happen, for example, in case you cancel SVN operation that's in progress.

I'm totally confused. Why do you run `svn delete`? What was the output of `svn status --verbose`? What made you think that you should run `svn delete` command? BTW, "Access is denied" is still just "Access is denied". You should double-check that your Windows / AD user account has full Read Write access to the location of your working copies. There is a chance that the errors occur due to lack of permissions. What about checking out the working copies to a new location where you sure have full access permissions? > > At this point I have no idea how to fix the issue, so I'm getting a brand new > copy of the repo.

Normally, you should be getting an error message and it should have a second informative part like e.g "Unable to connect to a repository at URL". I understand that you've just bumped up an old thread assuming that the issue you have is 100% the same as the one discussed here. But could you please add more details? What Subversion server and client versions do you use? Do you actually use WebSVN? How do you reproduce the errors? How is your server and client configured? What's logged to the logs? Answers to these questions are essential because there is a great chance that your issue and the one originally discussed here are completely unrelated.

This event means that the user account authenticates successfully. But this account lacks permissions to "se" repository. To fix this, you should look through the authz file "/etc/httpd/conf/dav_svn.acl" and double-check the access rules it contains.

Is there any service such as active firewall or proxy between the clients and the server? Which operating system are these clients on? Windows? Is there any antivirus on the client side? I'm asking these questions just because I vaguely recall a similar problem when an authentication prompt occurs in the middle of `svn checkout`.

What do you mean by "cloud features" and why do you want to disable them? As far as I understand, you are talking about Subversion 1.9.4 client provided by SlikSVN (https://sliksvn.com/download/). This is a regular command-line Subversion client for Windows and it does not have any special "cloud features". Therefore, I'm not sure that I'm following you at the moment.

Can you provide me > directions on how to setup the 2012 server and move all of the data from the > 2008 server. Thanks. I'm sure that you are not asking about how to setup Windows Server 2012, but about how to move your existing Subversion server installation and the repositories to a new server machine. Right? In such case, you could provide us with a bit more information about your current Subversion installation just because it's very hard to give you any directions without knowing at least the basic information such as whether you build the Subversion server yourself or use some Subversion server package such as VisualSVN Server or SVN Edge (what's the version of the server package, BTW?), which Subversion version and maybe Apache HTTP Server you run now in case you build the server yourself. But the basic step-by-step procedure is going to look like: 1. Install and configure the Subversion server on the new machine. 2. Move your repositories to the new machine. For instructions, read SVNBook | Migrating Repository Data Elsewhere: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.migrate 3. Make sure to move your repository hook scripts if there are any and check that they work as expected. I'd like to note again that this is the most basic instruction. At the moment, there is not enough info available about your current SVN server installation to give a detailed advice tailored to your particular situation. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

The main idea is to modify httpd-custom.conf file instead of httpd.conf. 1. Modify "%VISUALSVN_SEREVR%conf\httpd-custom.conf" file instead of httpd.conf. 2. Load mod_wsgi module by adding the line to the httpd-custom.conf. [[[ LoadModule wsgi_module bin/mod_wsgi.so ]]] 3. Generate the trac.wsgi script by running `tracadmin deploy` and specify WSGIScriptAlias directory in httpd-custom.conf pointing to trac.wsgi file. 4. Add the desired configuration to httpd-custom.conf file. Generally speaking, the steps and some examples are specified on the Trac wiki page: https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracModWSGI. NOTE: The latest version of Python 2.7 is 2.7.11 and it has a bug in its installer on Windows. See https://bugs.python.org/issue25824. The problem may cause service load failures when loading `mod_wsgi`. The workaround specified at https://bugs.python.org/msg256500 should solve the problem. In short, after installing Python 2.7.11 you should adjust the Windows Registry key mentioned in the workaround. The bug has to be solved in the upcoming Python 2.7.x patch update AFAIK. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

You say that you had to resort to building SVN and HTTPD on Windows from source. Does it mean that all the existing SVN server packages such as VisualSVN Server don't work for you by some reason? Why? I'm asking because VisualSVN Server comes with Python 2.7.x bindings and `mod_wsgi` which should perfectly work with Trac. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

Did they say anything else? What did you do to reproduce the problem? To me it does not look like a problem in Subversion.

I'm not sure that I understand what you mean by "quiescent" here. What's your concern? So you are planning to make a hotcopy and then transfer this hotcopy using rsync to another machine, right? * It's safe to run `svnadmin hotcopy` on a live repository. * And if you'd have to use `rsync` on a *live* repository, run `svnadmin freeze`[3] to prevent concurrent commits to the repo while `rsync` is running.

First of all, use the latest Subversion 1.9.x client. If the server has Integrated Windows Authentication enabled and the Linux machine is joined the AD domain, then the authentication over NTLM\Negotiate should work out of the box without applying any patches to the client. Make sure that this Subversion client has Negotiate auth enabled. Check "servers" file in ".subversion" directory in the user's home directory on the Linux machine. It should not have "http-auth-types" parameter modified. In your case there is a chance that that the parameter was modified. If it was modified, just comment the line with dash sign "#" to return it to defaults and save the file. You can also try the following command-line: [[[ svn info --config-option=servers:global:http-auth-types=Negotiate ]]] On Wed, Mar 23, 2016 at 11:04 AM, Andreas Stieger <andreas.stie...@gmx.de> wrote: > >> "Error running context: The requested authentication type(s) are not >> supported" when I try anything. > > This binary server distribution does not support Kerberos in this > configuration.

In such case, it's the client that does not support NTLM/Negotaite (NTLM or Kerberos), not the server. It seems that the client supports or is configured to use Basic authentication only. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

In case svn info (or any other command line) is the only way, what would be the proper way to do it ? Beginning with Subversion 1.8, `svn info` prints repository-relative URLs.

Re: E120105 (or not): The server sent an improper HTTP response
Hi Diego, I can provide you with some clues about this (this is a wild guess since I known nothing about your environment except the fact that you run Subversion server on Raspberry Pi device with Ubuntu): 1. If you get this error with Subversion 1.8 client, try Subversion 1.7 client. If SVN 1.7 works without any errors, configure this directive in your httpd.conf, restart Apache and see if you can still reproduce the error: [[ SVNAllowBulkUpdates Prefer ]] Should look like this: [[ Location /svn/ SVNAllowBulkUpdates Prefer /Location ]] 2. Disable antivirus on the client machine and attempt reproducing the error. You might be required to temporarily remove the antivirus because it can still work even when disabled.

While you can't create such structure with the current VisualSVN Server version (it's a known feature request and we consider implementing this in future updates),VisualSVN Server allows you to granularly configure access rules for users from multiple AD domains. Have you tried it? If a user does not have rights to access a particular repository then he won't even see it in the list of available repositories. This means that users with different access rules will see different list of repositories depending on their permissions. Therefore such logical structure may be considered redundant, especially if you need it only for user authorization perspective. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

Re: How to setup Write-through proxying (aka Replication on-the-fly) in VisualSVN server?
Hello, On 17 January 2015 at 00:47, STF SVN lapsap7+...@gmail.com wrote: I know this mailing-list has nothing to do with VisualSVN server, but I really need some help. I need to set up SVN replication on the fly, aka write-through proxying, using VisualSVN server. I know the new version of VisualSVN server supports replication, but for technical reason, I'm still using old version 2.7. You can't actually call write-through proxy as replication on the fly. Its simple replication solution that runs `svnsync` on master server *after* each commit by post- hook scripts. Commits always go to master in write-through proxy, the proxy part is just about redirecting all writes to go to master server which then replicates them to slaves using `svnsync`. Another note: write-through proxy does not work with Integrated Windows Authentication (i.e. AD Single Sign-On). BTW, what are the technical reasons that require you to use VisualSVN Server 2.7 and don't allow it to be upgraded to 3.2? I have found some articles here and there, eg http://www.visualsvn.com/support/svnbook/reposadmin/maint/#svn.reposadmin.maint.replication and http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html#svn.serverconfig.httpd.extra.writethruproxy etc etc and tried to follow them but failed. Maybe because those procedures are for Linux-based SVN server? And how much are those articles relevant to VisualSVN server, ie Windows-based SVN server? I've read http://www.visualsvn.com/support/svnbook/reposadmin/maint/#svn.reposadmin.maint.replication several times, but I have a doubt. Does it apply totally? Can I consider VisualSVN Server like a *generic* Apache HTTP server? Or VisualSVN Server has some special modification to Apache such that something wouldn't work? It applies but not totally because sample hook scripts specified in SVNBook work on *nix Shell only, so they have to be adjusted to work on Windows. Here is a sample post-commit hook that will work on Windows (its a batch script (.bat)) [[ C:\Program Files (x86)\VisualSVN Server\bin\svnsync.exe sync https://SLAVE/svn/repo file:///C:\Repositories\MASTER exit 0 ]] and post-revprop-change hook [[ C:\Program Files (x86)\VisualSVN Server\bin\svnsync.exe copy-revprops https://SLAVE/svn/repo file:///C:\Repositories\MASTER exit 0 ]] I have also found this article: http://www.cardinalpath.com/how-to-use-svnsync-to-create-a-mirror-backup-of-your-subversion-repository/ but it didn’t talk about putting the SVNMasterURI variable inside HTTPD config on the slave server. And as a matter of fact, I’ve gone through this procedure but I cannot commit to the slave server! The article is not about write-through proxy, it's about creating a backup repository that's always up-to-date. That's why this article doesn't cover the proxy part (i.e. SVNMaserURI config on slave server). -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team

Re: Hardware requirements for windows subversion
Hello Ram, Thank you for your response. I have a .net site the file size is 2 GB. There are only 2 developers working on this project remotely. Do I need windows server or windows 7? What kind of hardware, RAM, diskspace do I need? Do I still need Apache server? Where can i get Subversion installation from? Do I need to install visualSVN or serveSVN? You wrote that configuring the encryption takes a lot more complexity, is there any step-by-step instructions on that? What do you mean by serial processing? I don't have more than one cpu available. As Edward already said: If you can run windows, you can run svn. Machine specs can matter for larger installations with numerous developers accessing the same server, but that's definitely not your case. Only 2 developers accessing just one repository won't cause any significant load on the minimal machine capable of running Windows 7.

For details check this mailing list thread: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/subversion-users/201204.mbox/%3c87obqpxnis@stat.home.lan%3E In order to use special characters in passwords you should consider advanced authentication methods that do not store and transfer plain-text passwords over HTTP. As your network is based on Active Directory the solution would be to setup Single Sign-On / Integrated Windows AD authentication via Kerberos and/or NTLM.
