Subclipse crashes eclipse photon on SVN access

Eclipse Photon crashes immediately after accessing a SVN Server using Subclipse. Even opening the tree in reposity explorer crashes the Eclipse. System: Linux Mint 18.2 Eclipse Photon: actual version Sublipse: actual version

Are there any logfiles to look for the cause?

Best regards

For it to crash, my guess is it happens inside the native Subversion API. You might try changing to SVNKit at least temporarily. As a pure Java API you might get an error or exception but it is not going to crash the JVM. See: https://github.com/subclipse/subclipse/wiki

Usually the JVM will produce a crash log and it might have clues such as stack traces that point to what crashed. I have seen problems related to the gnome-keyring or KWallet support in SVN causing crashes. Those can be turned off in your ~/.subversion/config or servers files if that is the case and it could help.

As noted in https://github.com/subclipse/subclipse/wiki you should also make sure your native JavaHL library version matches up with the version required for Subclipse. This will usually causes exceptions not crashes though.
