Hi,
I'm getting a vague error. I have subversion set up through apache on
freebsd(all installed through ports). I'm working with a large
repository
containing lots of large files which I've migrated over from an older
similar install on another machine using svnadmin dump/restore.
I can navigate to the repository in firefox, see, and download files
(including large binary files) without any problem. I can check
out portions
of the repository from the command line using http on the machine
running
the server (svn checkout http://my.host.name/vault) without a
problem.
However, when doing a checkout onto any other remote system
(windows or
unix, using command line, or tortoisesvn), it grabs the first few
folders
but on hitting the first file(happens to be about 14mb) it gives
this error:
svn: REPORT of '/vault/!svn/vcc/default': 200 OK (http://
my.host.name)
On the server side I get the following errors from apache:
[Wed Jun 02 13:43:10 2010] [info] [client X.X.X.X] (32)Broken pipe:
core_output_filter: writing data to the network

I'm running:
svn, version 1.6.11 (r934486)
Server version: Apache/2.2.15 (FreeBSD)
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE
I've dug around and seen people with similar messages, either
related to
problems not applicable to my setup or bugs fixed in earlier
versions of
subversion.
Any ideas for things to try would be greatly appreciated.
Just a quick drive-by shot: take a look at networking components
between client and server (firewalls, proxies, ...). My prime suspect
would be a proxy (or proxy settings). Some proxies don't interoperate
well with svn (more particularly, some proxies have trouble with some
of the WebDAV methods that svn uses).
If there's no proxy and no firewall involved, I have no idea ...
Cheers,

There is a simple NAT/Firewall (no proxy) between my windows desktop
and the subversion server, which never caused a problem before
connecting to our previous server in the same location. The unix box
I tested from and got the same error has nothing between it and the
server (both on public IP addresses with nothing but an ethernet
switch between them). With that said, I'll do a few minutes of poking
around to make sure there's not something hiding in my network
configuration. In the meantime any other drive-by shots are very
welcome.
Thanks,
Michael
