just to add my 2 cents worth ...
I was trying to do a SVN checkout from work using HTTP. It failed. Our
ops guys said to use HTTPS, which worked fine.
The reason was because our work HTTP Proxy could not handle (ie. not
configured I guess) websvn requests.
So I imagine this could be quite common for people behind work firewalls.
So always try HTTPS if HTTP doesn't work for you.

Hi all,
I was trying to check out xalan source code with revision 357825 using
svn and failed on both linux and nt box.
The error message is pasted below, any pointers/comments/thoughts are
highly appreciated.
$ svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan/c/trunk --revision
357825
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/repos/asf/xalan/c/trunk'
svn: PROPFIND of '/repos/asf/xalan/c/trunk': could not connect to
server (https://svn.apache.org)
I just tried it, and I was able to check out the files without any
problems. Perhaps you have a connectivity issue? Maybe a firewall
that's getting in the way?
