SVN: Could not read status line: connection was closed by server

Question

I started getting this error today on my subversion repo when I try to update. Any suggestions?

svn: OPTIONS of 'http://example.org/example_repo': Could not read status line: connection was closed by server (http://example.org)

It appears that when I use the svn+ssh instead of HTTP, it works.

Answer 1

I believe it is a protocol issue. Have you recently changed any server setting regarding HTTP/HTTPS?

You could try and do an "svn relocate" to https://example.org/example_rep.

Answer 2

it worked for me. I tried HTTP when I should have HTTPS.

Answer 3

Take a look to proxy configurations settings...try uncheck the use of it

Answer 4

My problem was that I have my path as http://.... and I'm working with file system, then my SVN path must be file://, I try a rellocate and put it as file:// and it is working well.
