Hi,
anybody else having issues with Subversion and svn:// or svn+ssh:// URLs? The connection immediately fails with a SASL error message:
$ svn ls svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/trunk
svn: E170001: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/trunk'
svn: E170001: Could not create SASL context: generic failure
$ svn --version

Googling did not bring enlightenment, there is the same issue submitted for MacPorts, but they couldn’t reproduce it either… any ideas? Unfortunately the error message is so vague that I’ve kind of given up and use a Java Subversion client for now…
Cheers,
Daniel

Is the svn port (3690) opened in your firewall?
There should be no firewall blocking access, also I can telnet on the SVN server:
$ telnet svn.ffmpeg.org 3690
Trying 192.190.173.45...
Connected to svn.ffmpeg.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
( success ( 2 2 ( ) ( edit-pipeline svndiff1 absent-entries commit-revprops depth log-revprops partial-replay ) ) ) ^]
telnet> quit
Connection closed.
I also get the same error message for svn+ssh, and SSH is definitely working (and the Java client has no problems, either). Btw, I’m using the 32-bit edition of openSUSE in VirtualBox, if that could make any difference…

So I installed a new image with 12.2-rc1 64 bit, and I get the same error… steps to reproduce:
- install 12.2-rc1 from the DVD image
- install subversion (from the 12.2 repository)
- [LEFT]svn ls svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/trunk
I wanted to open a bug, but Novell’s Bugzilla requires me to validate my eMail address, which fails when requesting the validation code ([/LEFT]Error 500: java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 0, Size: 0).

The same login used in the forums is used in Bugzilla. Indeed, if you are logged in to the
forum, you are already logged into Bugzilla as well.

I am logged in, but e.g https://bugzilla.novell.com/index.cgi says:
Please confirm that your email address is valid by clicking here and following the instructions. If you have already done so, please log out and log back in.(iChain.pm: message 3)
Following the link and the instructions leads to the afforementioned error message…

No idea… You have to contact “them”, but I don’t know exactly where at the moment.

The email validation issue has been fixed, and I found the problem has already been reports under issue 771983 - https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771983
It also seems to be related to the kmail issues with the Cyrus SASL library: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=763112

Well, you can add a post saying that you experience the same problem. It helps seeing several
people affected.
