Hello,

I have the same problem with TortoiseSVN. With a web browser I can access the svn repositories behind an Apache HTTP server. When I try to checkout with tortoise I get this error message:
Error: Server sent unexpected return value (405 Method Not Allowed) in response to
Error: PROPFIND request for '/rdn/res/TDC_Servlet/!svn/vcc/default'

I snniffed the traffic and I noticed that the Reverse Proxy forwarded the first propfind (PROPFIND /svn/Project1), and the response from the Subcversion server (207 MULT-STATUS). But when the reverse proxy receives the second propfind request (PROPFIND /svn/Project1/!svn/vcc/default), it responds immediately with HTTP 405 (method not allowed), the reverse proxy don't forward the second propfind to the Subversion server.
Could be a problem with the symbol "!"?

I don't know what means these request PROPFIND /svn/Project1/!svn/vcc/default.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Santos

Try using https:// instead of http://

Change http:// to https:// didn't work for me.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?
Thanks!

Finally I found a solution.

For example, PC1 is the reverse proxy host.
PC2 provide svn service.

Make sure PC1 provide the same path with PC2.

ProxyPass /svn/samepath http://PC2/svn/samepath/
<Location /svn/samepath>
ProxyPassReverse /svn/samepath
<Limit OPTIONS GET REPORT MKACTIVITY PROPPATCH PUT CHECKOUT MKCOL MOVE COPY DELETE LOCK UNLOCK MERGE>
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
Satisfy Any
</Limit>
</Location>
