Hi,

I should like to access to the Alfresco repository (SVN)  (read only) with the HTTP protocol.

Is it possible?
If yes, wich url should i use?

Thanks.

Stephane

Ps: The proxy of company where I work doesn't accept the SVN protocol. I tried by replacing the protocol svn with http like I do it for the project svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk but it didn't success. (see http://gcc.gnu.org/svn.html for more infos).

Hi clinks,

I am struck with the same problem - as I'm stuck behind a proxy, which in my case mandates NTLM authentication. When using the 'svn://' prefix I observe that both SVN clients I have try to place a direct TCP connection to port 3690 - and eventually time out. It appears that the SVN protocol will not tunnel through HTTP - no matter what configuration I attempt.

The tempting solution to us both is that AlFresco themselves makes the repository available via HTTP. As the error message "PROPFIND of '/alfresco/HEAD': 405 Method Not Allowed" indicates, this is not currently the case.

So, what say AlFresco? Can we get HTTP access to the SVN repository?
