I'm looking to install the 1.6 version of JavaHL on CentOS, which proves to be more tricky then expected.

Has someone succeed doing so and can point a repo for this?

Thanks in advance.

On my CentOS 5 machine, the following worked like a charm:

yum install subversion-javahl

It pulled the rpm from the dries repo. If you don't have yum configured to pull from dries: http://dries.ulyssis.org/rpm/clientconfig.html

Remember, as has been said by others here, that JavaHL is pretty version-sensitive - I'm running subclipse 1.6 / subversion 1.6, so I installed JavaHL 1.6. Make sure you're installing the right version.

I resolved that issue on rhel5u5 64 bit, but doing a ckeckout from the latest stable tag and doing a full build of subversion and the javahl binding svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/tags/1.6.11 svn-1-6-11

./configure --prefix=/opt/subversion --enable-javahl --with-jdk=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-sun.x86_64
make 
make install
make javahl
make install-javahl

You will need to get many dependencies from the repositories though.

    I didn't mention this before, but if it is a production box you should try building it in another box(dev or a temp one) and then moving the binaries to the prod one. – feniix Jun 28 '10 at 17:05
  • My saviour ! Several hours lost on this $^$ù$ javahl before finding your answer. Thanks a lot. (on RedHat 5 with SVN 1.7, works the same.) – Offirmo Dec 08 '11 at 13:46

CollabNet provides an RHEL/CentOS RPM that includes JavaHL.

  • Thanks for advice, but it throws me the following error: Failed to load JavaHL Library. These are the errors that were encountered: no libsvnjavahl-1 in java.library.path /opt/CollabNet_Subversion/lib/libsvnjavahl-1.so.0.0.0: /opt/CollabNet_Subversion/lib/libsvnjavahl-1.so.0.0.0: undefined symbol: _ZNSs4_Rep20_S_empty_rep_storageE no svnjavahl in java.library.path java.library.path = /opt/CollabNet_Subversion/lib Ever managed to get it working? – SyBer Apr 10 '10 at 05:43
  • The problem actually seems to be here: undefined symbol: _ZNSs4_Rep20_S_empty_rep_storageE – SyBer Apr 10 '10 at 05:44
  • CollabNet's svn client RPM doesn't work with the most recent version of Eclipse either. – Drahkar Jan 09 '12 at 15:42
  • The CollabNet RPM works fine with Subclipse, but you do need to get the right version. Subclipse 1.8.x requires SVN 1.7.x and Subclipse 1.6.x requires SVN 1.6.x. – Mark Phippard Jan 09 '12 at 17:55

To do this for JavaHL 1.7 on centos5.8:

svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/tags/1.7.5/ svn-1-7-5
cd svn-1-7-5/
./get-deps.sh  #<---- not sure if that one's necessary.
. autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/opt/subversion --enable-javahl --with-jdk=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0
make
make install
make javahl
make install-javahl
