Did you do a "svn switch" somewhere in there, and neglect or fail to
switch the contents of the externals in your working copy? And can you
show your "svn:externals" content?

It sounds like your externals are using absolute https URLs, and Subversion complains that this does not match the URL you checked out the rest of the repository from when you check out with http.

I don't know why Subversion is caring about that. But have you considered using relative URLs for your externals? Usually that's better than using absolute URLs including the protocol.
