Eclipse Juno - Subversive SVN - Connection Timeout - Sorry, this connection is closed

Question

I've got the following problem: Since my update from Eclipse Helios to Juno my SVN seems to close the connection after a while to the server and can't reconnect.

I get the following:

Sorry, this connection is closed.

My server uses SVN v1.6.12. I'm using Eclipse Juno v4.2 and Subversive SVN and the SVNKit 1.3.8 Implementation (Optional). The newer SVNKit Connector with v1.7.5.v1 doesn't work at all.

Any ideas why this happens or how I can fix it?

Answer 1

I was having the same issue ( svn: Sorry, this connection is closed.) that SVN (in eclipse) close the connection after a while and sometimes I have to restart the eclipse to get it going again.

I changed the SVN Connector under Window > Preferences > Team > SVN > SVN Connector and it seems to work fine upto now.

Answer 2

As I mention in the comment, the article "[SOLVED] Fixing Subversive Commit Operation Failed Error in Eclipse!" describes the various connectors you could try, when you see the following error:

Amongst the commectors, you have one you didn't mention: SVN JavaHL

Adding a JavaHL (1.6 or 1.7) connector might solve the issue.
