svn repo behind symbolic link

Hi, i can't enlist my svn repo, it is behind a symbolic link on the server. like: http://www.myserver.xy/svn/symlnk_to_actual_svn This gives me an error (An error occured connecting to the server...) Any ideas or solutions? Thanks ahead.

Hi atcl,

To work with Ohloh, the Subversion server must support the following commands:

svn info
svn log --verbose --xml -r
svn checkout --ignore-external -r

All of these commands must return a 0 exit status from the command line. We support svn, http, and https protocols.

We can access repositories that require a password, but the password becomes public knowledge.

If you give me the actual URL, I might be able to help you figure out why our server is complaining.

Thanks,
Robin

Hi, Thanks for the quick response. My url is: http://www....

Well, yes, we're getting a 301 Redirect with this URL.

Unless you have a direct URL that doesn't redirect, we're dead in the water.
