When attempting to commit file in the jsunit directory in my working-copy, I waited a really long time and got an error like:
svn: OPTIONS request failed on '/svn_repo/OSB_Project/trunk/OSB/test/web/jsunit' svn: timed out waiting for server
Why would the server hang at this point?
Running SuSE 10.3 in a VirtualBox where I keep my Subversion server
Okay I solved this one, myself!
I grepped through the files in the subversion (.svn) directory for the phrase ‘http’ only to discover that in the file ‘entries’ the directory itself was still pointing to the non-existent SSL subversion server. I made the file point to the repo on the file system and now it works fine!
Problem solved!
