I’m having trouble checking out a project via svn. I have a repository set up at svn://consideropen.com/home/consider/rvsubversion/project/trunk.
I have no problem checking out the project in NetBeans, but, when I ssh to another server (not the same server as the repository) and run
svn checkout svn://example.com/home/consider/rvsubversion/project/trunk
I get a connection refused error.
Why is this happening?
Possibly your server is behind a firewall that only permits certain ports through such as 22, 80, and 8080 for example. It might not permit the standard svn protocol port 3690 to pass through.
Try
telnet consideropen.com 3690and see if you get:If you don’t then you are blocked. Your other option would be to set up the repository using subversion with WebDAV. Then your server would be able to access it over port 80 which is usually open.
