Subversive connectors not working with newest Ganymede update

Question

I'm using Subversive plugin in Ganymede, but after today's update it stopped working - it just doesn't see any valid svn connectors (I've already been using 1.2.0 dev version of SVNKit, instead of a stable one, because Subversive / Ganymede could not handle it; now it can't handle even the dev one). Any ideas how to make it work? Are subversive guys releasing a new version of their plugin / connectors soon?

Answer 1

I'm using Subclipse in Ganymede successfully, maybe could you switch? I do recall having problems with SvnKit also, I'm using the JavaHL client.

Answer 2

I could, but Subversive is (or at least was) better in handling file moves in Eclipse (it links it in svn keeping the update history instead of just deleting and adding the file).

Answer 3

I had a similar problem right after the update. It turned out that I had been getting the connectors (the base connector and both the SVNKit and JavaHL connectors) from the Polarion site that had "ganymede" in the URL. Instead, I should have been using the general URL.

Checking my current configuration, you should be using this update URL:

http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/update-site/

The one I had been using, that should be deprecated if you are using it, is:

http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/ganymede-site/

Note the difference. Once I changed that, I was able to download the 2.0.3 versions of the connectors, and Subversion again worked for me.

Answer 4

Any idea how to get the connectors from a computer that isn't connected to the internet? The lack of an archived update site for these is really a problem for me. Is there a way to download the .jar files and install them manually?
