Hello,
for a project it should be neccessary to use the repository (show log, update, commit,...)
of the current project on a build-in-pc in a mobile vehicle.

For this the pc can have access to the internet via a mobile hotspot from a smartphone.
While using this hotspot and trying to update the repository the following error message appears: "Unable to conect to a repository at URL 'svn://.......' Can't connect to host '.....'.

That problem only occurs when we use the mobile hotspot.
When we test it with an the WLAN or LAN of our  company it works fine.

I think the problem is that the internet over a mobile hotspot can't access the port
forwarding the repository needs.

But im not much into it, so my knowledge for these topics isn't that high.

Maybe someone can help em or confirm my assumption.

Thank you for reading and maybe your help ;)

Stefan

it seems that your repo is not available from outside your network. With LAN or WLAN you're still in your company network, but with the mobile hotspot you're not. So you have to ask your IT department to make the repo available from outside the company network, or install some VPN on your smartphone.
