Hi
I am part of a development team of approximately 30 people, all but a couple
using Windows 7 64it clients. One of our users is experiencing random checksum
errors when performing a fresh, clean checkout. The problem is random in that
it is a different file every time we perform the test. Below is an example of
the error. This case happens to show an XSL file, but it is any kind of file
that goes wrong. This does not go wrong for any other user. We have tried to
narrow it down to a directory, or repository. It appears that it fails all the
time for one repository, yet using a different repository on the same server, a
clean checkout worked twice in succession. I don't know whether this is just
luck though.
I am presuming that the data received for the contents of the file is being
validated against some metadata data for the file. We have tested using an
externally attached hard drive to check the disk is not the problem - same
outcome. Therefore I am presuming that the data is somehow becoming corrupt or
going missing.
Is the client code check summing the disk contents, or the data as it comes
from the TCP socket?
Please can somebody offer assistance as to how I can further look into this
problem, or what the likely problem may be and why this would only affect a
single machine.
Setup with problem:
Client: Win 7 64bit, svn 1.8.11 accessing via http
Server: Linux, openSuSE 13.1, subversion 1.8.11, apache 2.4.6. openSuSE
provided binary RPMs. Tortoise, Subclipse and svn command line tool all
present the same problem.
svn: Checksum mismatch for
'W:\000\pharosutilWIP\resource\xsl\pxf_templates-v1_9.xsl':
expected: a2bd8789226ed755298bd1c8d7e17535
actual: 34763dcfee82b6cbc18d63589d15e109
Many Thanks
Brendon
