"svn up" command says entity too large [duplicate]

Question

when i try to update my local subversion copy with the command "svn up" it gives me the error:

svn: Server sent unexpected return value (413 Request Entity Too Large) in response to REPORT request for '/repository/!svn/vcc/default'

what could be the problem here?

thanks!

Answer 1

I believe this error occurs when there are a large number of changes being updated and the request returns a response that is actually too large. When this occurs try updating subfolders individually first. Once you've updated a few subfolders the data being returned for the main folder request should be small enough to go through.
