I am using PowerBuilder 12.5 with build 2511. I am using Agent SVN to connect to the remote svn server. The server path is like "svn+ssh://user@domain/project/trunk". Here my problem is i am unable to checkout files from server, but i am able to check in files into server. while check outing it's giving the error checkout failed. can any body help what's the problem while i am check outing files from server?

I am able to checkout files from Power Builder with local SVN repository with ‘file://’ protocol. But i am unable to checkout files from remote SVN server with ‘svn+ssh://’ protocol.

This is the Power Builder log file when i am checking out a file from server

Please copy & paste the full error message you get when checking out. There are many reasons why you can get "checkout failed" but only one will be applicable to your situation. – alroc
The latest version of Agent SVN has been updated to better hand https:// authentication. That should hopefully fix this issue. – jussij

You should try to checkout the whole source with a GUI for SVN (for example: TortoiseSVN )

If you can do this, then the problem is with your Agent SVN for PB.

As an alternative you can try PBSCC proxy, which is a good SVN client for PowerBuilder too. We've been using it for 4 years from PB 10 - till the most recent version PB 12.5.1 with the latest build without any major bug. This can be downloaded from here.

And this solution is free :)

I hope it helps! Have a nice day!

I'm the author of Agent SVN. Generally when the plug-in works in file mode but does not work in server mode the problem will be a permissioning error.

If you refer to the Power Builder setup you will notice in the Power Builder Workspace setup you need to provide a user ID.

This is the user ID used to connect to the SVN server so you need to make sure this user ID is correct and is also correctly configured on the server.

Finally the latest version of Agent SVN (Version 2.25 or better) does a better job of flagging user ID issues make sure you are running this version.
