I have been using tortoise svn for a long time on this pc but it has suddenly stopped working.
I was performing svn checkout via tortoise and it returns the error:
Unable to connect to a repository at URL: <url>
Access to <path-to-repo> forbidden
Additionally:
- In tortoise SVN there is no authentication cached. I looked at Settings / saved data. Tortoise should have prompted for login but it does not.
- I can execute the exact same svn checkout from another machine and it works fine so it is not a permissions problem. I even copy/pasted the exact URL so the URL is exactly the same.
- I am able to checkout other svn server repos fine on the same pc with the same tortoisesvn client. I get a proper prompt from svn for login as required.
- I can use a browser on the same pc to open the svn url fine. The browser prompts for a login as required.
- I have already tried uninstalling/re-installing tortoisesvn and that has not fixed the problem.
- svn server version: 1.5.3
- httpd version: 2.2.10 running SSPIAuth module
- tortoisesvn client version: 1.9.3
- client OS: windows 2007 64-bit
