Setup / Client:
Windows 8.1 Pro
TSVN 1.9.5 Build 27581
Setup / Server:
Windows Server 2008
VisualSVN Server 3.5.7
Authentication:
Simple auth.
Problem description:
After Login at a client machine TortoiseProc.exe overwrites previously stored credentials in %APPDATA%\Roaming\Subversion\auth\svn.simple.
The file in svn.simple concerning "VisualSVN Server" is overwritten and points to another user. Credentials for this other user are not stored elsewhere inside SVN, neither can the username be found in the registry.
This behaviour suddenly occured without any changes to TSVN, VisualSVN or the repo structures.
It now occurs with every user logon to windows.
The only workaround is: User deletes credential cache manually and authenticates again.
Details:
In addition to the "real" users all repos allow read-only access to a simple user with a known password; The username is "bind".
Whenever a user logs on to windows the previously stored credential file (excerpt below) is overwritten by the credentials for "bind".
There is also an instance of TortoiseProc.exe "hanging" in the process list.
Replacing the credentials file with a backup version leads to the same behaviour:
TortoiseProc.exe replaces it. This is verified using procmon.
The "hanging" TortoiseProc.exe can be killed.
After killing the credentials file is not overwritten anymore.
Afterwards hibernating the windows machine, waking it up and logging in again does not reproduce the error, so it probably lies within the first instance of TortoiseProc.exe.
Workaround (not an acceptable solution):
- Script, startet after login:
- kill TortoiseProc.exe
- replace credentials file with a backup version
Excerpt from overwritten credentials file in svn.simple:

END

Even if the workaroung might be the only solution for the time being, I'd very much like to know where this problem originates.
Thanks for any help!
