Hi, thanks for the help & link.
With the windows account I get the following event log entry for every login try: user xx\\yy: authentication failure for "/svn/test/branches": Password Mismatch [client 127.0.0.1] After multiple tries the account is locked and I get this entries for every try: #1 user xx\\yy: authentication failure for "/svn/test": Password Mismatch [client 127.0.0.1] #2 user xx\\yy: (OS 1909) The referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to. [client 127.0.0.1] But the password is correct. While testing I saw that this issue only appears with some special characters in the password. If it contains e.g. ^,° or § the login fails. Is this a problem of TortoiseSVN or VirtualSVN? Thanks a lot. vasht On 22 Mrz., 14:39, VisualSVN Support <supp...@visualsvn.com> wrote: > Hi! > > >If we try to connect by TortoiseSVN it asks for the login again and again. > > The similar question has already been discussed in our Google Groups > topic:http://groups.google.com/group/visualsvn/browse_thread/thread/99bdeba.... > > >With Windows users it asks 4 times (sometimes more), then it prints: > > "OPTIONS of 'http://localhost:8080/svn/test':authorization failed > (http://localhost:8080)" > > Could you please send us the VisualSVN Server logs? > VisualSVN Server writes log to the Windows Event Log.
