Unable to create a branch in subversion using TortoiseSVN.

I get the following error message:

SVN authorization failed: could not authenticate to proxy server: ignored basic challenge, GSSAPI authentication error

Source URL:
"http://svn.lsc.co.uk/svn/projects/CWE/CWEConfig/trunk"

Traget URL:
"http://svn.lsc.co.uk/svn/projects/CWE/CWEConfig/branches/12c"

The * SVN authorization failed* tells me that you might have read, but not copy permission, or you're attempting to create the branch in the wrong location. A bit more info would be nice. For example, what does the URL of the original and what is the URL of the branch.David W.

TortoiseSVN was not passing my credentials to proxy server, hence the request was being blocked there. Supplying credentials in Network > Proxy Settings resolved the issue.

Make sure You have the read/write access for Both trunk and Branch location.
