Question

My eclipse always prompt a "unsupported password" dialog everytime i run it. It causes my eclipse to lag, and sometimes i need to force close it.

This is my subclipse :

enter image description here

I tried to change the config file in etc/subversion (ubuntu), i found it in this document :

### Valid password stores:
###   gnome-keyring        (Unix-like systems)
###   kwallet              (Unix-like systems)
###   keychain             (Mac OS X)
###   windows-cryptoapi    (Windows)
//i uncomment and empty the value, like the doc suggested
password-stores =

However, the dialog is still there.

Please help me out, Thanks for your help

La solution

I've finally done it. I'm still unable to save the password but at least the annoying dialog box is gone, forever.

The documentation was wrong, the config file I edited in etc/subversion has no effect. The true path is in /home/user/.subversion/config. There was actually 2 same config file in my laptop, and only one is work.

The step-by-step syntax in terminal :

  1. Chmod the config file because its read only :

    sudo chmod -R 777 /home/user/.subversion/config
    
  2. Change your current directory to the config's directory :

    cd /user/tama/.subversion
    
  3. Open it with libreoffice or other text editor :

    libreoffice config
    
  4. Uncomment (delete the #) in this line :

    password-stores =
    

Uncommenting the second line, with empty value automatically disable the password feature, thus we can say good bye to the annoying dialog box.

Feel free to comment if you encounter a same problem.
