Redmine

Doesn't seem to help? Any other information i can provide??

Can you access https://hostname/svn/project with whitespace/ from your browser? Can you login to the server running redmine and see what svn ls https://hostname/svn/project with whitespace/ outputs, if possible as the user running redmine?

Hi Felix,

as the user running redmine ... i can see the result of svn ls https://hostname/svn/project%20name/
but i can't see svn ls https://hostname/svn/project name/

Does that mean my apache is incorrectly set?

No, but URLs can't have blanks in them, they only get replaced by browsers with %20, which is a placeholder for blanks. Redmine should work with https://hostname/svn/project%20name/

hmm ok - well it doesn't? When i click on the repository tab and click through to the svn url with the whitespace in it, it directs me back to the proxy server error.

Do you use a reverse proxy to server redmine?

Nope - i don't.

I've come to realize that i think the issue is with the "GET \ADDRESS\OF\URL" which is different to the address that is displayed in the browser window.

Is anyone else seeing this sort of issue?

Where abouts is the code that redmine uses to get the repository contents?

Given that i could do
svn ls https://hostname/svn/project%20name/

but not
svn ls https://hostname/svn/project name/

But i can do
svn ls "https://hostname/svn/project name/"

I turned on the debug output of redmine, tracing it back to
cmd = "#{SVN_BIN} list --xml #{target(URI.escape(path))}@#{identifier}" (in subversion adapter).

Not that i know what this is written in, but is it possible to pass the whole "#{target(URI.escape(path))}@#{identifier}" with the quote marks? SVN actually does all the decoding for us, so there's no need to escape it.

The error you get is (or looks very much like) an apache reverse proxy error, we won't be able to help you without knowing what error caused that. If you have more information from the redmine logs, please post it here too.

Regarding the escaping of the URI: the URI.escape part should already format the blank to %20, which you state also works, so the problem is not there.

I just setup a test repository, and it works fine with https://some.url/svn/This%20is%20%20a%20test%20repo/ as well as https://some.url/svn/This is a test repo/ from my developments redmine. Please provide a way to reproduce, as this looks more and more like a problem with your setup rather than with redmine.

Hi Felix.
