Checkout from googlecode: svn problem
Posted by Chetan Sachdev | Posted in SVN | Posted on 10:43 AM
I was trying to have a checkout from one of googlecode project and I was getting the following error:
- while using eclipse
- RA layer request failed...could not connect to server
- while using command prompt
- svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/trunk'
- svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/trunk': could not connect to server <my url>
After searching for a while, I found that my system is behind a firewall/proxy, so I need to give the proxy settings to svn client. Below are snapshot on how to give proxy settings in svn client, Tortoise SVN.
Press Apply and then ok.
I hope this helps someone around. One useful link with step by step approach to checkout from googlecode.
