On Linux Mint 17 with Subversion 1.8.x I have problem with committing files to SVN - I obtain error: "svn: E120105: Error running context: The server sent an improper HTTP response".
What works on another computer with older system version is subversion 1.7.x.
I tried many things to fix it (overview is here - http://jankoweb.moxo.cz/blog/open-source/svn-error-the-server-sent-an-improper-http-response-pri-commitu/) but nothing works for me.
Do you know how to fix this problem on Linux?
I believe the issue is that the working copy format has been changed in svn 1.8.x, so you've two options I can think of:
1) run svn upgrade on the working copy. This may take a while depending on the size of the working copy, but it should sort things.
2) Check out a fresh working copy and use that, if you don't have too many changes to redo since the last checkout.
Hope that helps.
I can do checkouts, update and such. But when I try to commit changes, SVN gives me the following error:
Can't open file '/svn/p/pokemonium/code/db/txn-current-lock': Permission denied
I am using Windows 7 x64 SP1 with latest version of TortoiseSVN.
UAC is off, my account has read and write access, etc.
I can commit fine to other svn repositorys.
For me it ended up being a permissions issue on the server. I have my repo on a linux box, and ssh in to use svnadmin. For convenience sake, I had executed my create repository command as root. I was looking to get source I had on my Windows box into the repo, so was using TortoiseSVN to set up trunk/branches/tags. The directory containing the repo on the server was owned by root, and Tortoise was coming in as apache. I chowned the directory on the server to apache:apache, and it all went smoothly.
chown apache:apache -R my_repo_root
This is a server configuration issue. On windows host Visual SVN server runs under NETWORK SERVICE account by default. I solved this problem by granting full access rights to the repository folder to this account. Another option is switching Visual SVN service to the SYSTEM account, but that could pose a potential security risk.
Try this.
Make a back up copy of your working copy (just to be safe).
Make another copy your entire working copy off somewhere else.
Take the copy and delete all of the SVN folders out of it
Delete your working copy and do a fresh checkout
now copy/paste your corrupted working copy over your fresh checkout.
it is critical for this to work that you have completely removed ever _svn or .svn folder from your corrupted working copy before you perform the copy/paste.
This will leave you (hopefully) with a working copy that shows (!) on all the files you had modified since your last commit. And fixes your lock issue.
I had the same problem after I re-installed Windows 7 and just copied the SVN Repository from the old Windows to the new one.
After trying the steps that Mr. Manager proposed, the problem was still not fixed in my case.
After making sure that the permissions was setup correctly for the SVN Repository folder I just deleted the file 'txn-current-lock' in the /db folder of the project. That fixed it for me. From thereon I could commit my project again.
I had faced same issue on Unix box
Restarting the Apache service of the SVN server solved myproblem.
-f httpd.conf -k stop
-f httpd.conf -k start
In my own case, my linux server had been restarted after a power loss. The file system remained mounted as read-only since some journal repairs had been made. Rebooting the machine restored full function.
permissions worked for me too
error
repo/db/txn-current-lock: Permission denied
fix
chown apache:apache -R my_repo_root
Everytime I try to commit files to SVN I got the following error.
Command Commit
Modified D:\Project\src\WebSite\SomePage.aspx.cs
Sending Content D:\Project\AKent\src\WebSite\Test\SomePage.aspx.cs
Commit succeeded, but other errors follow:
Error bumping revisions post-commit (details follow):
Can't set file 'D:\Project\AKent\src\WebSite\Test\SomePage.aspx.cs'
read-write: Access is denied.
After I get this error, SVN doesnt allow me to update or commit anything! And what is really frustrating me is that the project folder is around 2 GB and every night I download it from SVN over and over.
Please help me to fix it! I just wanna know what is wrong with my SVN. I tried reinstalling, didn't fix anything.
I had the same problem but fixed. My solution is:
1. Run Command Prompt as Administrator
2. Navigate to the target working copy
3. svn cleanup
The error
read-write: Access is denied.
indicates that svn can not access the file or can't set all attributes it needs to that file.
Now that either means you have not full access to those files or some other application has the file opened exclusively.
In the first case: make sure that your username has full access to all folders and subfolders of your working copy. Note that on Vista/Win7 it's not enough to be an admin - you have to give yourself full access to such files manually.k
In the second case: disable windows search indexer for your working copy, and exclude the working copy from being scanned by your virus scanner.
If you are sharing a svn versioned folder using samba and running into this issue when acessing it from windows machine, try:
http://tortoisesvn.net/faq.html#samba
Also add to your smb.conf file:
dos filemode = yes
copy the wrong folder (1) to another folder(2)
delete the wrong folder (1)
copy the backup(2) to (1)
Hope this approach works for you too!
I was trying to revert a file but was receiving the error listed in the OP's post. Soony's answer just about worked for me. I cannot comment or edit that answer, so I had to copy their answer and add a small step at the end. S/he deserves all the credit.
Run Command Prompt as Administrator
Navigate to the target working
copy svn cleanup
svn revert [filename]
(the revert did not work in Windows Explorer/TortoiseSVN integrated tools, I had to do it from the cmd line)
I am new to use svn and the company in which I work uses three levels (I don't know whether this is a correct word to use here) of svn. I mean the developers are provided a working directory on a testing server. When we commit, it goes to the dev server. When a manager commits it from there it goes to production server. I am a developer here and one of my files is giving error (conflict) when I commit from directory. Not only, but also it gives conflict when manager tries to commit. I am now given access as manager too but I am still unable to resolve it.
What I've tried till now:
svn update
svn delete
svn commit
It gives conflict on all of these operations.
Earlier on a simple error happened and the manager preferred to just delete file on dev, copy it manually and then commit from there. I don't know this may be a reason of this problem or not.
Please help me resolve this issue. I've read some things in read-bean book too but to no avail yet.
Thanks
Ok, here's the update. The actual problem is that a file (ex lib/a.php) used to be in my working directory as well as in dev and production servers. Now it was deleted by someone (using del command, not svn delete) from dev server. Now question here is how I add it again so that it becomes part of svn again. The simple svn add doesn't work.
Update 2
From one of the answers below I understood that its a tree conflict. Some searching brought me to http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.tour.treeconflicts.html . Following the instructions, I took the backup of the file and then svn delete it from everywhere. Then I svn add it to my directory, commit it and tried to update dev and production. End result is that it doesn't go there. No error is shown either.
svn info in my directory shows complete info of the file but on dev and production it shows
file_name: (Not a versioned resource)
:S
Any more ideas please?
Alternatively you can take backup of the file ,then say svn revert filename insert you new code.Do a svn up just to make sure you do not have any conflicts,and then commit
Or
fix the conflicts in the file and then you can say svn resolved filename and then you can continue operations on the file
Update:If your file is deleted using rm or del command use svn revert filename to get it back and you do not have to add it again.Just put in your new changes and say svn ci -m"your comments" filename
svn revert will fetch back the last checked in copy into SVN and it wouldnt have your any changes made before the user had used del command
Update 2:After u say svn delete ,u need to commit it until u get the message Deleting filename with a new revision number.Then add the file using svn add command,then commit again.Once this is done you can check the svn info, let me know..
Use svn status command to know the status of the file
The only problem apart from this i can think of is this the directory may not have been added.Is this a new directory?
ah, the old tree conflict problem.
The issue is that SVN is letting you know that you're adding a file that used to be there but it cannot tell whether you're trying to delete it, add it or just update it! So it does the only thing it can - flags a conflict so you can sort it out and fix it. Its basically a conflict on the directory level (rather than a conflict of a file's contents).
What you do is resolve the error (as others have pointed out), then update the directory to get the original file back, then commit your changes. Note that the file was never deleted from SVN - its still in the repo, and if you checkout out a new WC, you'd get the file.
Try to resolve the conflicts then commit again:
svn resolve --accept working
I am running ubuntu server with Subversion 1.6.6.
In windows I use the latest Tortoise SVN compiled against Subversion 1.6.6.
I create a new Repository and when I attempt to view the repository or import my files and get the following error:
"Could not open the requested SVN filesystem"
I can view the repositories via the command line (as root) but want to view them in Tortoise. Some repositories however are fine and I can view and comit without any problem via Tortoise.
I am sure its a user / permission thing but not sure where to look?
Any suggestions are greatly accepted.
Thank you
How do you access the repository on your server? If you're using file:///, that won't work since the repository format isn't compatible between OS. You have to use either svn:// or http(s):// to access the repository (and set up the corresponding server app).
If you're already using svn:// or http:// to access the repository, you can check the apache error log or run svnserve in console mode to get more detailed error messages.
your repositories must have full read/write access for the user who runs the server (svnserve or apache).
I ended up perforoming a repository dump then re-installing ubuntu, subversion, then installed USVN (great app). I next restored the repository from the dump. Everything is working great now.
