I am trying to configure Jenkins CI to perform continuous integration for our project

  • 0

I am trying to configure Jenkins CI to perform continuous integration for our project and am unable to get it to connect to our SVN repository over https. Any time I try to configure the repository URL and it attempts to connect I get the following exceptions:

I tried adding the -Dhttps.protocols=SSLv3 property in my tomcat as described in this post and still had the same error.

At this point I’m completely stumped as to what is going on… unfortunately I’m no SSL expert to fully understand the SSL debug information. Anyone have any thoughts on how to correct this error?

    So, it looks like it was an issue dealing with the SSL configuration on the server. Apparently SVNKit won’t work with TLSv1 for some reason.

    Our initial configuration was to only allow TLSv1:

    SSLProtocol -all +TLSv1
    

    So, the fix was to enable TLSv1 and SSLv3:

    SSLProtocol -all +SSLv3 +TLSv1
