4.2 svn integration does not seem to work with 1.7 servers

SVN integration is busted for us on 4.2 OSX. We are using the cloudforge service. Trying to connect, we get:

SourceControl:Error: Error svn: E175002: Unexpected HTTP status 405 ‘Method Not Allowed’ on ‘/XXXXXXX/trunk/XXXXXXX’

Executing the update command using the svn shipped with the QFE, we get:

$> /Users/Shared/UnrealEngine/4.2/Engine/Binaries/ThirdParty/svn/Mac/bin/svn update

Updating ‘.’:
svn: E175002: Unexpected HTTP status 405 ‘Method Not Allowed’ on ‘/ballgame/trunk’

svn: E175002: Additional errors:
svn: E175002: PROPFIND request on ‘/ballgame/trunk’ failed: 405 Method Not Allowed

What can we do to get around this?

Tommy.

Hi,

Although I haven’t had much experience with this specific error message, a bit of Googling suggests that this can sometimes be caused by mis-configured proxy servers.

  • Are you connecting via HTTPS?
  • Can you connect via the command-line with a different version of SVN (if so what version)?
  • Can you see the servers via CloudForge’s web interface?

This answer on SO seems similar to your issue:
