SVN Checkout error with VisualSVN Server

votes

I'm new at both TortoiseSVN and VisualSVN Server. I've installed VisualSVN standard edition on my PC and created a repository and could checkout from another PC (both are in the same network). But cannot checkout from my PC. It says Error: Error running context: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.. But I can browse the Repo from my browser. I'm using 443 port by VisualSVN Server. What can I do make a checkout at my PC? Thanks in advance.

The proxy was causing this issue for me. To solve it:

  1. Right click in Windows Explorer
  2. Go to TortoiseSVN > Settings
  3. Unselect Enable Proxy Server OR add the server's hostname to the Exceptions
  4. Hit OK / Apply

  • Make sure that you use the correct URL (e.g. copy the URL via VisualSVN Server Manager),

  • If the URL is correct and you still get the error, I suggest following these steps:

    1. Start VisualSVN Server Manager,
    2. Go to Action | Properties,
    3. Switch to Network tab,
    4. Under Server Binding, choose All IP addresses option,
    5. Click Apply and see whether you get the error or not when accessing VisualSVN Server via Subversion client.

If the above steps do not help, check VisualSVN Server log for errors.
