I installed CollabNet Subversion Server on my server and had been using it with Eclipse on my desktop for a long time. Through some Eclipse changes, my SVN client install was lost (the server was untouched). After re-installation of the SVN client plug-in, I am unable to re-connect my projects with the SVN repository; I don't know the URL or anything.

When I open "SVN Repository Browser" in Eclipse, right click and select New > Repository Location, It asks me for a URL. I have typed "file://machineName" and "http://machineName", then the Browse... button, but I get "An error occurred while accessing the repository entry". Since the server hasn't changed, and I see that svnserve.exe is listening on 3690, and httpd.exe on port 90, I presume there's more needed on the URL, but I don't know what that is.

Resources available to use to recover the connection to the repository:

  • The .svn file in the project folder
  • The files on the server supporting the repository
  • svn.exe on the server (it says '.' is not a working copy when I tried a few commands). I don't have svn.exe on the client machine.

Where should I look to see how to reconnect my projects with the CollabNet svn server?

  1. Make sure the expected Eclipse SVN plugin is being used (subversive vs subclipse, etc).
  2. Try connecting with svn://

collabnet has its own plug-in try to install them from eclipse marketplace in Help menu.

Check the repository name it should be

"http:// [Your_Machine_name] / svn / [Your_Repository_name]"
