I have been using Eclipse 3.3 with Subclipse 1.2.4 without any major
issues. I've recently upgrade to Eclipse 3.4 still using Subclipse 1.2.4
without much trouble. However, I then decided to upgrade to Subclipse 1.4
and that's when I started having trouble. I am not longer able to use my
svn+ssh repositories. I've tried creating a new workspace thinking that the
old settings were somehow conflicting with the version. This is what I get
when I try to create a new repository with an svn+ssh connection:
Error validating location: "org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException:
The system cannot find the file specified.
svn: Can't Create tunnel: The system cannot find the file specified.
"
Keep the location anyway?
The error message indicates that JavaHL is being used, but I have SVNKit
selected (it's always been much simpler to use svn+ssh connections with
SVNKit than JavaHL in the past). The SVNKit entry in the dropdown menu in
the options is listed as "SVNKit (Pure Java) Not Available". Is this plugin
not available for some reason (which would beg the question why it was even
listed) or is it simply the version information for this plugin that can't
be looked up?
So maybe the SVNKit connection is failing for some reason and Subclipes
tries to fall back to JavaHL and that is also failing because I don't have
the external tools necessary for SSH? Is there any way to disable the
fallback to JavaHL? I'd like to see why SVNKit is failing.
