SVN Error E175002 while checking out code from repository

Question

While trying to checkout code from a repository online I got the following error:

E175002: REPORT of '/repos/xxx/!svn/vcc/default'

I am trying to checkout the code from a remote computer.

Solution 1

After long research, I finally found a solution the solution was to put allow from all in the svn configuration on httpd.conf:

<Directory /repos>
...
allow from all
...
</Directory>

The svn checkout is working fine now

The above are for apache 2.2

if you use apache 2.4

<Directory /repos>
    ...
    require all granted
    ...
    </Directory>

Solution 2

In my case I had E175002 because of missing DNS records of Subversion server.

Solution 3

I have changed the windows password and then I have tried checking out the code and I end up with the above unknown host error.

I have restarted eclipse and restarted virtual machine where my eclipse has been set up.

Now I am able to checkout. Hope this helps.

Solution 4

I had 2 issues:

a) The svn folder was not readable by apache user

b) Possibly the Directory was not setup correctly

In my example, SVN repository is installed under /home/svn.

1) chown apache.svn -R /home/svn

2) Modify subversion.conf:

<VirtualHost svn.xxx.com:443>
    ServerName svn.xxx.com
    DocumentRoot /home/svn/

  <Directory "/home/svn/">
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        Options None
    </Directory>

SSLEngine on
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP:+eNULL

SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca.crt

          "%t %h %{SSL_PROTOCOL}x %{SSL_CIPHER}x \"%r\" %b"

alias /svn /home/svn

<Location /svn>
 DAV svn
 SVNPath /home/svn
 SVNListParentPath On
 AuthType Basic
 AuthName "Repositorio Subversion"
 AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/dav_svn.passwd
 Require valid-user
 allow from all
</Location>

</VirtualHost>

Solution 5

I had the same error, but the cause for the error was, that I am behind a proxy server. I could resolve this issue by configuring SVN to use this proxy server. Details how to do this can be found in the following discussion:

In 1.7.2 the support for Directory directives is lost as mod_dav_svn will no longer map URLs to the filesystem. Instead be sure to use the Location directive. subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/…

If you use apache 2.4 use require all granted instead
