I can't check out SVN project on windows 7 Ultimate

On windows 7 Ultimate I can't check out SVN projects or do updates. After clicking checkout project or update it shows a dialog where I put in the project URL and then require me to type in username and password. After that the dialog just hangs there, with message the bottom "639 bytes transferred, at 0 bytes/s". If I user repo-browser same thing and after one hour it times out (I can browser the repository with a web browser). I can do checkout and updates on XP Mode so I don't think it is a firewall issue.

  1. When you put in the URL, did you make sure the [i]case[/i] matched 100% correctly? SVN used to be a bit problematic in this area, although AFAIK only during write actions.

  2. Are you checking out to a local folder where you actually have write permissions? (i.e. not in program files, the root, a custom folder inside %users%, or any other folder where the explorer pretends you have write access but you really don't). The TortoiseSVN client might not trigger a UAC dialog.

Are you using TortoiseSVN? Do you have to provide a proxy in Internet Explorer or an other browser to connect to the internet?

If both yes, than you have to enter the proxy settings in Tortoise. Just go to All Programs -> TortoiseSVN -> Settings -> Network.

Tortoise doesn't use the settings that were set in Internet Explorer.
