Not able to checkout code of jmeter using svn

[vivek]

Hi All,

I am trying to download the source code of jmeter from the Apache Jmeter 
website:

http://jmeter.apache.org/svnindex.html

When i try to checkout the readonly version using svn, i get the 
following error:

*svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jmeter/trunk**
**svn: E175002: REPORT of '/repos/asf/!svn/me': Could not read status 
line: connection was closed by server (http://svn.apache.org)**
*
Please help.

Regards,

Vivek
