subversion issue with eclipse

Question

I have recently configured eclipse for subversion by installing the plug-in subclipse. Now the problem is that when I try to import folders from svn I get this error:

Folder " does not exist remotely

The url that I provide is of the form "svn:// ... " and works fine with netbeans. Infact I was using netbeans until now and things were fine as far as svn was concerned. Another thing is that eclipse works fine if I try to import from a test url that I got from a website during subclipse installation. So eclipse can import projects from http://subclipse.tigris.org/svn/subclipse but throws the above error for my url(which is otherwise ok with netbeans). I am using ubuntu 11.04 if that is of any concern.

Thanks for any help,

Are you importing the correct URL (no spaces)? – Asyut

Answer 1

I had also the same problem. But now it is working fine.

Solution

Window->Preferences->Team->SVN

Then select 'SVN Interface' as 'JavaHL'. Click 'Apply' and then 'OK'.

Thats it...

Thanks, this fixed it! – Heiduc

I had message "JavaHL (JNI) Not Available" and had to also follow these instructions: https://mcmap.net/q/1166878/-javahl-jni-not-available – Carline

I did the exact opposite. Mine was set to JavaHL and I switched it to SVNKit. Thanks! – Heated

Answer 2

In case anyone has this problem, check the option by proxy connectivity. Set it to manual.

Answer 4

Have you imported your project into the same directory under Netbeans and Eclipse? If so that might be the problem, try to use a different location.

it throws the error before asking for location, after pasting the url I am asked for user/pass, after I enter my credentials, it throws the error (my user/pass are correct, I've double checked them) – Westley

not sure it makes much difference, but I always use Checkout, not import – Blowtorch
