Jenkins not able to use SVN credentials or download new plugins/new versions

Can anyone suggest how to fix the two issues?

- Can't upgrade Jenkins and SVN plugin

- Can't connect to svn

I am setting up Jenkins on a Windows 64 bit machine. It's configured to run as a windows service.

We are running this on Windows 7 64 bit OS

Jenkins 1.482

I am able to do an SVN update/checkout from my user account on the machine.

When I attempt to set up a job on jenkins I get the following when trying to add svn credentials

FAILED: org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNErrorMessage: svn: OPTIONS /svn/client/trunk failed

More details are:

FAILED: org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNErrorMessage: svn: OPTIONS /svn/client/trunk failed

org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNException: svn: OPTIONS /svn/client/trunk failed
    at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.io.dav.http.HTTPConnection.request(HTTPConnection.java:298)
    at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.io.dav.http.HTTPConnection.request(HTTPConnection.java:283)
    at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.io.dav.http.HTTPConnection.request(HTTPConnection.java:271)
    at ...

I stopped the service and ran Jenkins from command line and tried the same thing - with the same result.

I am able to connect to the svn server with a tortoise client and via firefox with the same credentials.

In researching the issue I saw a few posts about similar problems and the only one that seems to claim to fix it is rolling back to Jenkins svn plugin version.

I then tried to install the latest jenkins and Plugin for svn. The downloads failed. Aha, I thought - obviously a firewall issue. So I disable the firewall.

Still no good. I can't automatically download or get the new Jenkins or SVN plugin.

bit late topic, but did you try the following solution?

http://www.daangemist.nl/2014/03/03/jenkins-reports-sslv3-error-on-svn-update

that one worked out for me, in my case I wanted to use -Dsvnkit.http.sslProtocols="TLSv1"

Windows 7 x64 has some automatic firewall settings. You may need to open a firewall port to allow the connection.

You should be able to verify or eliminate this as a cause by trying to run your svn client outside Jenkins.

What about running Jenkins service with your account?

Try starting jenkins with this option:

-Dsvnkit.http.sslProtocols="SSLv3"

Or, if Jenkins is starting svn plugin in a separate JVM, try adding the line to wherever the svn plugin run configuration is.

It's a known problem with svnkit, which is used by Jenkins' svn plugin:

http://issues.tmatesoft.com/issue/SVNKIT-176

Also, this answer can be helpful with regards to upgrading your svn plugin.

To change your Windows service commandline:

  1. open a command line window cmd.exe
  2. sc qc "JenkinsSlave" (if that's what your service name is)
  3. select and copy the BINARY_PATH_NAME value
  4. change it, adding -Dsvnkit.http.sslProtocols=""SSLv3"" after the jar path - mind the double quote
  5. sc config "JenkinsSlave" binPath= <paste the changed value copied earlier>

Replace JenkinsSlave with your service name.
