SVN subversion control for Elmer

[tincho]

Dear all,

who knows exactly, how I can call out to the internet to get the svn -"updates" as root in terminal.

i tried out different usergroups, svn help, .. and many other things but get always:

root@CHNEU-V-0068955:/opt/elmerfem# svn copy http://elmerfem.svn.sourceforge.net/svn ... rfem/trunk /opt/elmerfem
svn: OPTIONS von »http://elmerfem.svn.sourceforge.net/svn ... rfem/trunk«: Konnte keine Verbindung zum Server herstellen (http://elmerfem.svn.sourceforge.net)

engl: cannot connect to server

svn was properly installed via synaptic. libapache2-svn
connection via synaptic, firefox, update manager works!!!

I'm a bit confused.


thanks a lot for helping me.

Hi

The following should do the trick

Code: Select all

svn co https://elmerfem.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/elmerfem/trunk elmerfem 

Note that it is not impossible that sf.net is unavailable sometimes. It does happen and your trials may occured at an unfortunate time.

Hi Peter!

Thank you very much for your reply. that's what i try.

I don't think that the server was down, because i could see its contents with firefox. Am I wrong?

It's a beginner fault of mine - I'm sure. Could it bee a config problem in ubuntu 10.04?


there is no light at the end of the tunnel...

ok, had a flash lite at the end..

i installed a lot of svn-tools via synaptic, suggested by ubuntu. connected to a hardwired LAN and it worked!
and I obtained the 4844 release. phuu..
let's go for compiling...

thanx good!

edit:
2nd Problem was: I'm behind a Proxy, so i had to configure subversion like this:
edit the following file: /etc/subversion/servers (you can edit it in gedit, if protectet copy to desktop, edit and copy back as root: cp /home/user/Desktop/servers /etc/subversion)
to:
http-proxy-host = Proxy-Adress
http-proxy-port = Proxy-Port
http-proxy-username = Domain-Username
http-proxy-password = Domain-Password

it worked for me.
