An SVN error (200 OK) when checking out from my online repository
svn, tortoisesvn
Solution
Apparently, this is more a restriction issue by my host, and I am working with them to resolve it.
Thanks, 1800.
BTW, the answer here was that my host, A2 Web Hosting, requires that SVN be handled via SSH using a public_key and configuring, in my case, TortoiseSVN to do the job. It was sort of funky for someone who has just a little experience setting up keys, but it was pretty satisfying once it was done!
You can find information about SVN on the A2 host in their support wiki.
Problem
I'm trying to set up my first repository on my host and am getting this error when I use TortoiseSVN to checkout the project: Error: OPTIONS of `http://mywebsite.example/svn/myproject`: 200 OK (`http://mywebsite.example`) Here is what I did: SSH into my host and head to `/home/myaccnt` and 'svnadmin create svn' Create my project repository: 'svn mkdir svn/myproject' Add files to the repository: cd `/home/myaccnt/.../myproject` (which has /tags, /branch, /trunk); 'svn import file:///home/myaccnt/svn/myproject' (the big old list of files being added is seen at this point.) At this point I think that I've setup my repository and imported my project into the repository. So, I'm ready to checkout using TortoiseSVN on my Windows box. So: In the folder I'd like to checkout to, I right click and SVN Checkout, and then make sure my URL is: `http://mywebsite.example/svn/myproject` Result? Error: OPTIONS of `http://mywebsite.example/svn/myproject`: 200 OK (`http://mywebsite.example`) Anyone have any thoughts for me? I'm likely missing something fundamental with the structure of my repository or htaccess... or something.
