Hi,
we have the same error also, if we try to access a "external" svn with username and password.

Sorry, no support request here. Something prevents your redmine to call svn client correctly.

Sorry but we don't provide "help" here. Unless you're able to figure out what is going wrong with your svn access, I can't fix anything. Please, have a look at the similar issues: http://www.redmine.org/search?issues=1&q=%22No+close+tag+for%22

well if i have time, i will take a deeper look inside redmine again ... but this elementary function, a normal svn access must be work out of the box!!! i spent over 2 hours in this and get no solution ... we will see ...

It is obviously your ssh setting problem.
Please do not open issue for unrelated problem.
Please use forum.

samir djouadi Team:
i think this error happens very often ... so this is not a svn config problem, i think the redmine setup routine goes wrong ways. it is realy "not good" if redmine admins (mostly also developers) spent hours or days to solve this stupid problem ... take a look inside the forum and search for :
"Error parsing svn output: #<REXML::ParseException: No close tag for /lists/list>"

why use redmine not the defined svn users: it seems that redmine use the www-data user for a svm connect and not the defined logindata
Could not create directory '/var/www/.ssh'.
Host key verification failed.
svn: To better debug SSH connection problems, remove the -q option from 'ssh' in the [tunnels] section of your Subversion configuration file.
svn: Network connection closed unexpectedly
Could not create directory '/var/www/.ssh'.
Host key verification failed.

It depends on Web server.

its a ... game here ... why check this not the redmine install routine, because webmine USE this Webserver? So this is a misleading "function" from redmine : you can paste user and password data for a svn acess and further this data will be not used ???

Please use forum for topics of specific platform.
Redmine is Rails application working on multi platforms and Web servers (apache etc.).

the crazy thing is that the cvs access to a external server is working .. but this wicked redmine - svn access doesnt work ... I mean that this preconditions must be checked by the redmine install

Hello redmine Folks: this is a Defect because Redmine has here a misleading function: the user and password data ar total obsolete - senseless. So make please :-) this function correct and consistent
see here: http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/28422?r=32903#message-32903
only the webserver process user is finally the user for the remote svn access.
This defect waste to much time, please understand ...

What is Redmine defect?
The answer is written in this message.
http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/28422?r=32903#message-32903
You need to set ssh config to web server process UID.

Toshi, you are joking right? Please stop closing this issue as it has a MAJOR influence on subversion integration of Redmine.
This IS AN ISSUE and as you are part of the devteam you have to fix the documentation and NOT point people to forum threads.
If so many people have problems with that, then maybe it is worth doing a comment on the configuration page because this is clearly misleading!

I had the same problem but I discovered that the svn's ssl certificate was expired. I created another one and executed the svn list command as the user that executes Thin server to accept the certificate permanently. Everything is OK now! :)

I absolutley agree with this:

Same error occurs if your svn is not visible thru DNS, my DNS was public instead of private...
Trap SVN/repo problems and display error message to user.
