SVN problem

[Andre]

Is anyone else having this problem. Trying to either download or update using SVN and it just hangs every time it reaches one spot:

"Fetching external item into 'cerb4/libs/devblocks/libs/ZendFramework'"

Can anyone help me with this. I would so love to be able to use it to get all the wonderful updates.

Hey,

What version of SVN is installed on your system?

[Andre]

SVN version 1.4.3

[neenach2002]

Try upgrading to the latest version then try again...

We're using 1.4.2 on a couple of our servers, so that shouldn't be a problem.

When you're stalling at ZendFramework, that's one of our 'svn:externals' links in the project. It's pulling that code out of Zend's own repository.

Have you tried more recently just to rule out any network issues between your server and theirs?

The 'svn:externals' entry for it is, specifically:
libs/ZendFramework -> http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/tag/release-1.0.2/library/

Can you pull that URL up from your server? Perhaps it's a firewall issue -- if you had to explicitly allow xev.webgroupmedia.com, or you blocked zend.com phone-homes in the past.

I'm getting a similar problem:-

Fetching external item into 'cerb4/libs/devblocks'

Fetching external item into 'cerb4/libs/devblocks/libs/ZendFramework'
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/framework/tag/release-1.0.2/library'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/framework/tag/release-1.0.2/library': Could not read status line: Connection reset by peer (http://framework.zend.com)

Did you manage to fix yours?

I can ping framework.zend.com

[jstanden]

I haven't been able to reproduce this, but it does seem from time-to-time the external repositories have network trouble.

SwiftMailer was doing this (from SourceForge) and I just copied the project into our main repository. I'd prefer to not have to do that for ZendFramework though.

Is this still causing trouble for you?

[mrmarmot]

Yep - still getting the same problem

[cnet@csn1 public_html]$ svn --username readonly checkout "http://xev.webgroupmedia.com:2222/cerb4/cerb4/"

Fetching external item into 'cerb4/libs/devblocks'

Fetching external item into 'cerb4/libs/devblocks/libs/ZendFramework'

[cnet@csn1 public_html]$

[mrmarmot]

Just thought I'd try it again and, lo and behold, it's working now. Shame it's so unreliable.

[jstanden]

Yeah, that repository is out of our control. Though you would imagine Zend could handle it. We could always mirror it if it continues to be an issue.

[Macindy]

Same problem here - I can't get the Zend reps...

Fetching external item into 'cerb4/cerb4/libs/devblocks/libs/ZendFramework'
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/framework/tag/release-1.0.4/library'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/framework/tag/release-1.0.4/library': Could not read status line: Connection reset by peer (http://framework.zend.com)

[Hildy]

You can try again, since it may have been a temporary hiccup on their server's part, or if necessary, we can probably provide a zip of the files.

[Macindy]

No chance - tried today again. The same again.

Can you provide me a zip of all files, but for future updates I'd like to use svn if possible.

[Hildy]

Okay. Send an email to hildy at webgroupmedia dot com with someplace to ftp it to (or if you can't, let me know, and I'll find a place to host it).

I'm not on one of my computers right now, though, so I don't have a copy at this immediate time, but I'll get it for you Monday at the latest...

[Macindy]

Thanks a lot - now its working for me (with your download)

But can you perhaps mirror the Zend stuff, I'd really like to use svn for updates and now I always get problems with Zend.

[Macindy]

Sorry the svn problem is still there. And the zip-file is at v566 right now.
Please can you mirror the zend stuff - this doesn't work for me since weeks.
