Subversion and Non cached passwords
« on: July 30, 2008, 10:32:20 pm »
I am using EA version 7.1 build 831 and Collabnet subversion 1.5.0.31699 together with TortoiseSVN

I get everything to work just fine using the "standard" installation.

What i want to achieve is the ability to restrict different packages (views) to certain users. I can esily achieve this in Subversion by using the passwd and authz files.

These settings are ingored by EA, which uses the cached authentication that I specified when either using the command line or Tortoise

If I turn off the caching by modifying the Subversion auth config file

store-passwords = no
store-auth-creds = no

the command line and Tortoise still work fine, but EA just hangs, waiting for authentication, but not displaying an authentication dialogue

Is it that EA and Subversion will only work with cached authentication? If so, can we please get EA to work without cached authentication?

For testing purposes my subversion server is on localhost and I am using svnserve

Cheers
