Problems getting current alfresco head build from SVN

[chrisb]

Hope someone can help me, I'm having problems getting the HEAD version of the code in the alfresco SVN repository.

I am using the Tigris.org SVN plugin in Eclipse 3.2 runnning on WinXP. I have tried both the svn: and http: methods of accessing the public repository and both run into problems on the same file after the checkout gets about 89% complete.

Error as follows from console in Eclipse:

    A  D:/eclipseworkspace_alfresco/alfresco_svn_root/projects/installer/bin-win/Process.exe
    Problem running log
svn: In directory 'D:\eclipseworkspace_alfresco\alfresco_svn_root\projects\installer\bin-win'
svn: Error processing command 'modify-entry' in 'D:\eclipseworkspace_alfresco\alfresco_svn_root\projects\installer\bin-win'
svn: Error getting 'affected time' on 'D:\eclipseworkspace_alfresco\alfresco_svn_root\projects\installer\bin-win\Process.exe'
The system cannot find the file specified.  
svn: Can't stat 'D:\eclipseworkspace_alfresco\alfresco_svn_root\projects\installer\bin-win\Process.exe': The system cannot find the file specified.
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Tried using Tortoise SVN as well and get a similar error.

D:\eclipseworkspace_alfresco\alfresco_svn_root\‍

is the local directory on my machine where I am trying to download the SVN repository root directory and contents to.

Any help greatly appreciated - I need to urgently access to some features in 2.01 for a project I am currently working on.

Thanks,

Chris

I don't know of any problems with the public SVN server (anyone?) have you tried a basic "svn checkout" using the svn command line?

Thanks,

Thanks Kevin - I'll try the command line. Maybe its a WinXP thing - I'll also try the command line under a Linux dev setup to see if that works OK.

Just FYI - didn't manage to get it working under WinXP using the command line svn either. Might be something to do with my XP setup, although subclipse works fine with a variety of other projects and remote repositories.

However it works fine under linux from both the command line and using the subclipse svn plugin, so will use this environment for development for now.

Thanks

That's very odd, but at least the linux setup works. Please let us know if you ever find out the reason why you had problems on windows…

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi I am using Windows 2000  Pro and I having problems checking out the codes. I tried using Tigris and Tortoise but both are giving me the same error -

Error: REPORT of '/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request (http://svn.alfresco.com) 

Any idea about this error and how can I resolve it?

Many Thanks!

The same problem here.. is there any solution available??

UPD: I was able to obtain source code using the following command

svn co svn://svn.alfresco.com/alfresco/HEAD‍

It was taken from here: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Development_Environment

We just noticed that some virus checkers delete Process.exe because they think it's a virus.  Could this be the problem?
