I have a cronjob which commits some files every five minutes. However, it is not working anymore. It prints

Error validating server certificate for 'https://xx.xx.xx.xx:443':

When I run this script manually, it gives no error and commits succesfully. What may be the cause of this problem and how can I solve it? Thank you

    There are three options:

    1. Get your network admins to issue an updated/correct certificate (the best option)
    2. Change the command to svn commit --non-interactive --trust-server-cert
    3. Sudo to root then change to whatever user is used by cron: su cron_user and then do a commit by hand. You should get the above prompt and then you can choose option ‘p’ to accept permanently.
