Last night we upgraded our server to 1.8.8. Everything smooth. However, we
are seeing some strange behavior regarding usernames.
Issue 1: One of my users on a Win 7 64 bit machine, uses the SVN CLI as his
client. Before the upgrade he was working fine. After the upgrade he keeps
getting a forbidden error. The apach logs shows he is logging in with
Xxx.Yyy as a username when we require and have defined in the
svnaccess.conf file xxx.yyy. I had him delete the auth folder reopen a
command window and try again. No luck. The server logs keep showing him
trying to login with Xxx.Yyy. I even tried to use the --username argument
on the update as well as a fresh checkout and it ignores it. His machine
credentials are Xxx.Yyy. He is the only user so far that is having this
problem. Any ideas what is causing this and how to fix it?
Issue 2: An automated process on Windows 2003 R2, is having a similar
problem as Issue 1. The process runs as "administrator" but the cached
credentials are a different user. The process is able to run an update with
no errors, but the apach log shows an unknown username from that IP
attempted to access a SVN url.
These issues seems to be new to 1.8.8. We upgraded from 1.7.5.
Thanks
Tom
