Troubleshooting

Importing self-signed CA

When connecting SVN to a host with self-signed CA (e.g., VisualSVN Server,) you have to import that CA into $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts before using Eclipse Subversive plugin. Or, you will see the following error:

Location information has been specified incorrectly.

svn: E175002: java.lang.NumerFormatException: For input string: "ae"
svn: E175002: OPTIONS request failed on '/svn/*****'
