I'm bumping up this old thread because I encountered precisely the same problem John Cary did and I wanted to add a few data points.
John was seeing this with Jenkins 1.478. I'm seeing it with the latest Jenkins, 1.492 as of this writing, which comes with version 1.39 of the Subversion plugin and which can be upgraded to 1.43. I verified that the problem arose with both 1.39 and 1.43 of the Subversion plugin. Like John, I tried the -Dsvnkit.http.sslProtocols=SSLv3 system property to no avail. Ultimately, the workaround that worked for me was to install an older version of Jenkins, 1.464, which was released back in May. This comes with version 1.34 of the Subversion plugin. (I recognize the apparent reality that Jenkins doesn't let you upgrade or downgrade a plugin to an arbitrary version, for what I can imagine are understandable reasons.) I still want to try modifying the Subversion server configuration to use the following: SSLProtocol -all +SSLv3 +TLSv1 I don't maintain the Subversion host, though, so I don't know if that's an option for me. The Subversion server I'm consuming is version 1.6.5. I welcome any further insights. As far as I can tell, this is a bug that was introduced recently in the SVNKit Subversion client, which the plugin uses. On Thu, Sep 6, 2012 at 5:53 PM, John R.
