Problems with headless SVN authentication [message #381089]

I was wondering if anyone could verify that it's not possible to access an
SVN repository requiring authentication using
buckminster.product-1.1.0.r09505.zip (it could after all be some
configuration mishap :) )

Details of the problem and what I've tried are here:

Thank you,

Hi Scott,

I reckon the issue. However I know this isn't a fix, you can have a look to this thread on the buckminster-dev list :

Hi Guillaume,

Indeed, it sounds like we're running in to the same problem. This helps me
verify that it's not a configuration error on my part. I'll follow the
thread on the dev list that you pointed out, and post there, so that we
can consolidate the discussion.

Thanks for pointing that out! :)

Hi Scott

I can access an svn repository that requires authentication with
buckminster.product-1.1.0.r09505.zip. I use the subversive svn feature.
The trick I use is to pass the username and password via jvmargs from
a command line. This only needs to be done once as subversive stores
the authenication details.

The command I run is:
java -Dsvn.user=uname:passwd -jar
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_3.4...jar -application
org.eclipse.buckminster.cmdline.headless resolve ...

Where svn.user is used in the rmap for the authentication credentials;
uname is the username for my repository and passwd is the password.

Regards
Doug

Hi Doug,

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually realized last night on another
project that I was still using <args> rather than <jvmargs>, even though I
switched from <exec> to <java>. So, it could be my own configuration
problem. I'll try it out again and post results.

One question though. Does the same rmap work in the headless and the
eclipse environment? Or, are you only using the rmap for resolving
headlessly?

Thank you,
-- Scott

Hi Scott

I rarely resolve in the GUI, however I do use the same rmap when I do.
If I am resolving in the GUI then I add a property to the cquery to set
the svn.user.

Doug

Hi Doug,
I figured out what was going on [1]. Thanks for the pointers -- they
helped!
