Hello,

I'm using Subclipse to connect to an SVN repository via svn+ssh and a private key (the server has the paired public key). The interface is SVNKit (Pure Java). After I enter the svn+ssh://repository... address I am prompted for credentials. I specify the username and private key file (I did not set a passphrase so it is left blank) and confirm. The window pops up again and this goes on indefinitely. No console message is provided.

Note 1: Marking "Save information" seems to have no effect. If there is a cache I'm supposed to be deleting this could help. I already deleted the keyring file in eclipse.

Note 2: I wasn't sure if the private key should be in SSH2 or OpenSSH formats, but I tried both and there is no difference.

Specifications:
Windows 7 64 bit
eclipse 4.2.1 64 bit
Subclipse 1.8.16
Subversion client adapter 1.8.3
SVNKit client adapter 1.7.5.1

If there is any other information or log file I should provide I would be happy to do so.

Subversive and Subclipse are different products. You need to send this
to users@xxxxxxxx.org or post here:

http://subclipse.tigris.org/ds/viewForumSummary.do?dsForumId=1047

That said, SVNKit is in total control of this, so you would be better
off asking at http://svnkit.com They likely have some logging or other
ideas you can try.
