svn checkout

#1 Unread post by George »

Hi I am having a problen checking out ROMS 3.0 with svn:

[george@georgina ~]$ svn checkout https://www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk MyDir
Authentication realm: <https> Subversion Repository
Password for 'george':
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/src/trunk'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/src/trunk': 403 Forbidden (https://www.myroms.org)

I cant even view the repository @ https://www.myroms.org/projects/src/browser
As I get "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /projects/src/browser on this server."

I can log into the ROMS website, forum and wikipage with no problem, and yes, my username on my local computer is the same as my ROMS username.

Any idea what the problem could be ?
Thanks
George

Your ROMS user name is George with a capital "G".

Code: Select all

svn checkout --username George https://www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk my_roms_dir

Well that explains it :o I guess the ROMS webpage and wiki and case sensitive then as the problem has never shown up before.
Thanks Dave much appreciated.

I seem to have problem when accessing this website by "svn checkout". https://www.myroms.org/svn/src

The problem emerged when I try to login with my user name(Zhou Wei) and password, which are exactly as same as I used to login this Discussion and myroms.org website.

== Svn checkout ==
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/src'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/src': 403 Forbidden (https://www.myroms.org)

Is this problem caused by the blank in my username(Zhou Wei)?

Any information is greatly appreciated!

hi,

I seem to have same svn checkout problem, though my username and passord are correct (I can login to Forum) and don't have special characters. Any other possible reasons for this problem? Thanks.

ok,

after I posted this message, I realized my username is MJiang instead of mjiang. It seems the Forum login is not case sensitive.

Similar problem.

I can login to the forum, login name is 'tim_cera', but cannot login to anything else. Cannot login to SVN, myroms, or the wiki.

Error message is different than original poster:

Code: Select all

svn: Server sent unexpected return value (403 Forbidden) in response to OPTIONS request for 'https://www.myroms.org/svn/src/trunk'
Thought it was my password and tried to have my password e-mailed to me and that didn't work either.

Kindest regards,
Tim
