svn: OPTIONS of 'REPO URL: authorization failed:

I am using two commands 1)svn ls with username and password 2)svn mkdir with username and password. svn ls works without any problem but svn mkdir fails with the following error message: "svn: OPTIONS of 'REPO URL: authorization failed: Could not authenticate to server: rejected Basic challenge"

Can someone please help me with this? I have googled this many times. People have reported similar problems but not exactly the same.

I got this just with empty (forgotten) password, while using --password option.

If you have Tortoise SVN installed. Go to the settings and clear the cache. It should be under "saved data". Open the repo browser, accept the certificate and save the password.

that's it !
