SVN checkout failing with the protocol svn+ssh

Question

I am using PowerBuilder 12.5 with build 2511. I am using Agent SVN to connect to the remote svn server. The server path is like "svn+ssh://user@domain/project/trunk". Here my problem is i am unable to checkout files from server, but i am able to check in files into server. while check outing it's giving the error checkout failed. can any body help what's the problem while i am check outing files from server?

I am able to checkout files from Power Builder with local SVN repository with ‘file://’ protocol. But i am unable to checkout files from remote SVN server with ‘svn+ssh://’ protocol.

This is the Power Builder log file when i am checking out a file from server

You should try to checkout the whole source with a GUI for SVN (for example: TortoiseSVN )

If you can do this, then the problem is with your Agent SVN for PB.

As an alternative you can try PBSCC proxy, which is a good SVN client for PowerBuilder too. We've been using it for 4 years from PB 10 - till the most recent version PB 12.5.1 with the latest build without any major bug. This can be downloaded from here.

And this solution is free :)

I hope it helps! Have a nice day!
