Hi, I'm running into a problem with the info2 call in the 1.6 JavaHL library. I am attempting to use this to fake password validation for a user, so if this is a bass-ackwards way of doing things, please let me know. I issue two calls to svnclient.info2. The first one does an info2 on the local, checked out directory, and the callback stores the serverUrl (gotten using the getUrl() call). I get the correct value: http://10.0.62.148/svn/myproject The second call then does an svnclient.info2 on the serverUrl. This second call throws a ClientException: 2012-08-27 15:21:57,446 [main] ERROR P42svnMain - com.salesforce.cheetah.p42svn.SubversionRepositoryException: Could not validate the user [p42svn:p42svn] on repository [http://10.0.62.148/svn/myproject] at com.salesforce.cheetah.p42svn.SubversionRepository.validatePassword(SubversionRepository.java:113) at com.salesforce.cheetah.p42svn.P42svnMain.setupSubversionRepo(P42svnMain.java:46) at com.salesforce.cheetah.p42svn.P42svnMain.main(P42svnMain.java:68) Caused by: org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Path is not a working copy directory svn: 'http://10.0.62.148/svn' is not a working copy No such file or directory svn: 'http://10.0.62.148/svn' does not exist at org.tigris.subversion.javahl.SVNClient.info2(Native Method) at org.tigris.subversion.javahl.SVNClientSynchronized.info2(SVNClientSynchronized.java:1779) at com.salesforce.cheetah.p42svn.SubversionRepository.validatePassword(SubversionRepository.java:111) ... 2 more
If I do an svn info from the command line, it works fine: mporwit-wsl[script]$ svn --username p42svn info http://10.0.62.148/svn/myprojectAuthentication realm: <http://10.0.62.148:80> myproject subversion repository Password for 'p42svn': ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Your password for authentication realm: <http://10.0.62.148:80> myproject subversion repository can only be stored to disk unencrypted! You are advised to configure your system so that Subversion can store passwords encrypted, if possible. See the documentation for details. You can avoid future appearances of this warning by setting the value of the 'store-plaintext-passwords' option to either 'yes' or 'no' in '/home/mporwit/.subversion/servers'. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Store password unencrypted (yes/no)? no Path: myproject URL: http://10.0.62.148/svn/myproject Repository Root: http://10.0.62.148/svn/myproject Repository UUID: 945e25ec-ac10-400e-ab83-16708dcd2c39 Revision: 77 Node Kind: directory Last Changed Author: p42svn Last Changed Rev: 77 Last Changed Date: 2012-08-26 19:34:58 -0700 (Sun, 26 Aug 2012) So I'm confused as to why info2 is failing. It seems to be dropping the last element of the path, which is another thing I'm confused about. Pointers to what I am doing wrong are appreciated, as would be pointers on how to better validate a user password prior to doing a commit on the repo. I'm not subscribed to the mailing list, so an explicit CC would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Marcin
