[fpc-devel] FPC SVN Error and Wow!

2008-11-07 Thread listmember
I was trying to get a copy of the whole FPC SVN, but at some point, I 
get the following error:


Server sent unexpected return value (413 Request Entity Too Large) in 
response to REPORT request for '/svn/fpc/!svn/vcc/default'


Does anyone have any idea why I get this 413 Request Entity Too Large 
message from the server?


And the Wow! thing is this:

From what I so far downloaded, my side of the copy is:

4.95 GB (5,315,804,192 bytes)
634,779 files
115,577 folders

Wow!

What svn command line are you using?

Maybe you are trying to download everything, including all tags, all
branches, all binary files, etc, etc.

Usually you only want to download either trunk or the latest fixes branch.

I am using the latest stable TortoiseSVN (Windows).

Yes. I deliberately want to do that.

True. But, I want to get a full backup.

I mean what command are you using. Something like:

svn co blablabla


Since this is a point-n-click GUI thing, there's no command line that I 
know of.


But the URL I am using is this:

So, which action from right-click menu have you chosen? SVN Checkout?

You should be using

http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/trunk

You were trying to download trunk and all possible branches.

First 'SVN Checkout'; then --after each failure-- 'SVN Update'

And the error is quite clear: you're pushing too much data to the server.


I don't have 'write' access. Not have I done any alterations to copy I 
have so far managed to get.


What data could I be pushing to the server?


Try cutting up in several smaller chunks:
Browse the server repository, and request only the branches that you need.


Though I am not clear why this may make a difference, I'll try updating 
'trunk', 'tags' and 'branches' separately.

The state of your current copy of the repository; From this the server 
can determine what data it should send and what not. If there are too 
many files, this will amount to a big request, and that could cause such 
an error response.

I think that is a good idea.

H.. That makes sense but I am not sure (how) it applies in my case.

Reason: I get this error quite consistently.

I mean, even when I first issued 'SVN Checkout' when there was nothing 
on my side to worry about difs and what not.


Seeing that it downloaded something like 4 GByte of data and then (and, 
only then) stopped due to server error, it implies (to me at least) that 
there is something wrong on the server side.


Anyway, thanks to you pointing out likelihood of me affecting the server 
somehow, I did some googling and it seems this is not such an uncommon 
issue.


Apparently, it has to do with Apache settings. IOW,

413 Request Entity Too Large problem can be solved by moving 
SSLVerifyClient from the directory level up to the virtual host level as 
found in Apache bug 39154,


See: http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2008-01/0689.shtml

or

http://www.svnforum.org/2017/viewtopic.php?t=3159

and, for the actual Apache bug report and workaround:
