Authorization failure

#1 Unread post by LRasmuson »

Hi,

I have been working to access the code with a subversion client,I have tried collabnet and X-Code, and I keep getting an authorization failure message. Below is the output from trying to access the subversion client through X-Code.

Error: 170001 (Authorization failed) Description: OPTIONS of 'https://lrasmuson@www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk':

Am I missing a step to the process of accessing the code other than using the command lines that can be found in the wiki?

Thanks,
Leif

If you need to specify a user name you should do it like this:

svn co --username lrasmuson https://www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk my_dir

Putting it in the URL will not work.

In your case that line should have been:

svn co --username LRasmuson https://www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk my_dir

because user names are case sensitive.

Sorry for the confusion.
