Question

SVN is returning Access Forbidden when upgrading to 1.8+ clients

Our server is running:

Server: Apache/2.2.22 (Win32) SVN/1.7.8 mod_auth_sspi/1.0.4 DAV/2

and when I try to upgrade to any of the following clients they all give Access Forbidden:

AnkhSVN 2.5 
TortoiseSVN 1.8.1 through 1.8.3 (1.8.0.24401 works) 
Silk SVN 1.8.1 through 1.8.3-1 (1.8.0 works)

Update: AnkhSVN 2.4 no longer works now that I've updated my local repositories to 1.8

Was it helpful?

Solution

It turns out that newer versions of SVN started to capitalize the domain name. And our authz file containes all lower-case domain\username entries.
