Hi,
Recently we upgraded our svn server/client from 1.6.2 to 1.6.13, and since then, we are encountering the following error when a user tries to checkout/update a svn resource, where he has the required access (both read and write). svn: REPORT of '/svnrepository/!svn/vcc/default': 200 OK (http://10.1.121.199 <http://10.1.121.199/> ) -> this was with http protocol, and found the below errors in apache error logs: [Tue Nov 16 19:57:07 2010] [error] [client 10.1.128.18] Provider encountered an error while streaming a REPORT response. [500, #0] [Tue Nov 16 19:57:07 2010] [error] [client 10.1.128.18] A failure occurred while driving the update report editor [500, #185005] [Tue Nov 16 19:57:07 2010] [error] [client 10.1.128.18] Decompression of svndiff data failed: size too large [500, #185005] When I tried to do the same activity with svn protocol, I got the below error: svn: Decompression of svndiff data failed: size too large The weirdest part is that, it checks out the folder, but not the contents of the folder, and then throws the error mentioned (for both svn and http protocol). When I tried to checkout all the files in the subjected folder, with the help of svnlook (svnlook -r <last_modified_rev_on_that_folder> cat repository_path file_path > testfile), I got the same error for one of the file. svnlook: Decompression of svndiff data failed: size too large I could re-produce the error with both command line svn client, and tortoise svn and in both windows (xp service pack 3), and linux (RHEL5) environments. As mentioned earlier, both of our client and server are 1.6.13. Please confirm, if this is a bug or not, and suggest a way forward, and let me know if you need any more info. We could resolve the issue here for the time being, by deleting the resource, and re-committing the same (luckily the user, who made the last change, still had a working copy). PS: posted the same at users mailing list, and confirmed that it's a bug, possibly related to a known bug. Regards, Rajesh This email is sent for and on behalf of Ivy Comptech Private Limited.
