Hi,

Since the latest version of the MacOS Sonoma, I m facing issues with SVN.

Please check the following

svn update                                                                                                                                    ─╯
Updating '.':
svn: E130005: XML Parsing failed: Unexpected root element 'options-response'


svn --version                                                                                                                                 ─╯
svn, version 1.14.2 (r1899510)


Please help

Thanks
Pavan

This error doesn't reproduce on my side with svn 1.14.2 on macOS
Sonoma 14.0. And I doubt that it's related to SVN or your macOS
system. Looking at the error message, I think that you should
double-check your proxy server, reverse proxy or application firewall
if you have any. Contact your system administrator for assistance.

Hi Pavel,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I m using my personal macbook, so I dont have any proxy server, reverse proxy or application firewall.

This error is coming only after updating the macos, earlier I didnt faced any issues

Please help

Where is your repository located?

A reverse proxy is something you would expect to have on the server side. Depending on your network there could also be a transparent proxy server and/or package inspecting firewall interfering with the traffic. Your system administrator should know about this.

Kind regards,

Hi Daniel,


Thanks for the quick reply.


Our repository is currently hosted on AWS EC2. 

To check the issue in other OS's, I have set up Ubuntu and MacOS 13 virtual machines on my MacBook using UTM. I have not encountered any issues with the "svn update" and "svn checkout" commands while running them on both the Ubuntu and MacOS 13 virtual machines. However, when running these commands on my MacBook, which has the latest MacOS 14 version installed, I encounter some errors which I shared earlier

I hope this info will help to debug issue

Regards
Pavan

I saw you were using SmartSVN. Just to rule out any issues in this software, have you tried the Subversion command line client? I'm no Mac user myself but I understand there are several options available using Fink, Homebrew or MacPorts, see https://subversion.apache.org/packages.html#osx

Can you catch the network traffic to see exactly what is sent to the servern and the replies?

Kind regards,

Hi Daniel,

I attempted to use svn commands in the terminal on the latest version of MacOS and encountered errors with both "svn update" and "svn checkout". However, when I ran the same commands on an earlier version of MacOS using a virtual machine, I did not encounter any issues.

Have you tried to catch the network traffic?

Hi Daniel,

What exactly you are referring about "Have you tried to catch the network traffic?" , can you please help how to check this network network traffic while running svn commands

Regards
Pavan 

Someone with more MacOS experience can probably help but Wireshark and/or Telerik Fiddler (both seems to have Mac versions) is probably a good start.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

I tried Fiddler, but no network data is capturing when I run the SVN commands in the terminal. Check the attached video

May I  know what exactly you are looking for in the network data, I just wanted to know why the svn commands working fine without any issue in macos 13 and why not in macos 14

I'm looking for information in the HTTP headers that could lead us to understand why you have problems. Obviously you should filter out any credentials or other sensitive information.

Pavel has confirmed that Subversion works for him without any issues on macOS 14 and I can see no reason why it wouldn't work for you. This is the reason why both Pavel and I have asked for more details regarding your network environment, your server etc.

Unable to see the attached file.

Kind regards,
Daniel

FWIW svn 1.14.2 from MacPorts has been working for me fine throughout the macOS 14 beta cycle, and with the final release.
