SVN Troubleshooting

********************************************************************
Error: Malformed Network Data with Mac when connecting to repository
********************************************************************
  first idea: old version incompatible with server
  solution: update program
    go to help->software updates->find and install->search for new features
    check both the "subclipse" and "subclipse update" boxes, and then next
    check the "subclipse update site" box and hit next/finish until its done
    retry the "checkout" procedure

  second idea: MAC defaults to incompatable version of SVN
  solution: update program
    referenced in this blog: <http://blog.maxdunn.com/articles/2006/
    12/07/svn-malformed-network-data-error-in-eclipse>
   
    when you install SVN for MAC, use this website for the update address:
       <http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.2.x>
    INSTEAD OF the address I provided for Linux/XP
       don't use this for mac->  <http://subclipse.tigris.org/update>

**************************************************
Error: svn: Network connection closed unexpectedly
**************************************************
  first idea: unstable network connection
    solution: make sure internet connection is stable

  second idea: Mac incompatability with SSH protocol
    solution: change from JavaHL to SVNKit (PureJava)
      go to Window > Preferences... > Team > SVN)->the SVN Interface
      check SVNKit (Pure Java) instead of JavaHL

  third idea: do not have access to server
    solution: open command prompt
      type "rsh <BOL account>@ucfilespace.uc.edu"
      type "cd /Home/y/youjh/svn/repo"
      if you cannot open this folder and view something, you don't have the
        correct permissions. Contact me to add you and/or change the rwx
        permissions.

  fourth idea: do not have svnserve in default $PATH
    solution: copy the .bashrc and .bash_profile from my homedirectory

      type "cd ~youjh"

      type "cp .bash_profile ~/"

      type "cp .bashrc ~/"

 

********************************************************************
Error: Cannot Update(cannot create directory: xxx: permission denied)

********************************************************************
  first idea: no rwx access somewhere in repo
  solution: ad rwx
    have Joe go to svn/repo

    chmod 777 repo/db

    chmod 777 repo/db/*

 

********************************************************************
Error: unsupported clas version error: java.lang.unsupported

********************************************************************

   install the latest version of java (6.0)

 

***********************************************************
Annoyance: Must enter password a billion times
***********************************************************

    solution: change from JavaHL to SVNKit (PureJava)
      go to Window > Preferences... > Team > SVN)->the SVN Interface
      check SVNKit (Pure Java) instead of JavaHL

    When you connect to the server the next time, click the remember

      password box, and then the remember user box

 

 

 

das is alles fuer jetzt.

~Joe
