SSL handshake failed: SSL error: sslv3 alert illegal parameter.

This is the error that I get when I try to import a big file to SVN. What do I do?

Most likely, the server is forcing you to use SSL v3, which the SVN client is not using for the connection.

Try connecting via an up-to-date browser, or from the command line -- e.g. curl with SSL v3 specified -- and verify that is the case.

Once you have verified this as the cause, see how your SVN client can solve it.

  • hmm. I can enter the https link in browser and it works. Now what? – alansiqueira27 Dec 26 '13 at 17:09
  • Great. To solve the issue depends on your OS and your SVN client, see how you can make your SVN client use SSL v3.

  • I tried both without success. But thanks for your effort. I think it's a problem with the support of the company that I work. – alansiqueira27 Dec 26 '13 at 17:39
