Could not read chunk size: Secure connection truncated

[Ivan Latunov]

Hi,

I have a svn server running VisualSVN. When I try to access the repository from TortoiseSVN over https I get an error: "Could not read chunk size: Secure connection truncated". Any operation takes a long time and results in the above error.

If I try the same from a web browser with the same URL I have absolutely no problem and I can browse the whole repository.

Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Thanks

Browsing with a webbrowser doesn't access the repository with the DAV
protocol. The server simply sends a plain html page, not what an svn
client receives.

Since only DAV has problems: get rid of your virus scanner and/or
firewall. Seems that piece of expensive crap can't deal with DAV and
thinks it's dangerous and removes data (that's why you get "truncated":
the crappy app removes what it thinks is dangerous).

I had this same problem, and I eventually discovered it was an HTTP timeout - the Apache web server (that SVN is sending info through) had a default timeout of 10 minutes, but my SVN operation took about 15 minutes, so it timed out before it ever finished. Increasing the HTTP timeout in apache solved the problem for me.

I wrote some instructions on how to do this with Visual SVN server on my blog:
