Very large file commit fails over WAN

Hello SVNers,
 
I have several people using my Windows/Apache2.0.59/SVN 1.4.2 repository
over our corporate WAN. One is trying to commit a large file (~57mb)
which takes around 10 minutes.  When the file is done uploading (via
TortoisSVN 1.4.4) he gets the following error:
 
Adding: work\client\fsiSVN\Flash\fla\karaoke\Karaoke.fla
application/octet-stream
Sending content: work\client\fsiSVN\Flash\fla\karaoke\Karaoke.fla  
Error: Commit failed (details follow):  
Error: PUT of
'/svn/clientfun/!svn/wrk/afe29080-632e-ea4a-85a7-9c519313cf13/Flash/fla/
karaoke/Karaoke.fla': authorization failed
(https://tcw2k3subv01.main.corp <https://tcw2k3subv01.main.corp/> )  
 
My /Location tag is as follows:
<Location /svn/>
 SSLRequireSSL
 DAV svn
 SVNListParentPath on
 SVNParentPath "C:/svn-repo"
 AuthName "Subversion Repository"
 Require valid-user
 AuthAuthoritative On
 AuthType SSPI
 SSPIAuth On
 SSPIAuthoritative Off
 SSPIDomain MAIN
 SSPIOfferBasic Off
</Location>
 
My apache log has errors like this:
[Wed Jun 20 16:32:57 2007] [error] [client 10.14.19.71] (OS 87)The
parameter is
incorrect.  : authentication failure for
"/svn/clientfun/!svn/wrk/f96c9b4d-945
2-af47-a37e-39e180d9b51c/Flash/fla/karaoke/Karaoke.fla": user unknown,
reason: c
annot generate context
 
That is the IP of the user in question.  The strange thing is I've had
OS87 error all over the place and they never meant anything before;  I
was just unable to find the source and pretty much ignored them, so it
might be a red herring.  I also tried increasing my Timeout setting in
apache, to no avail.  This user, and everyone else, has no problems in
any other situation.  It is only the large file that is causing a
problem.
 
Any ideas would be most welcome.

Re: Very large file commit fails over WAN

Posted by Shirish Jain <li...@getafix.net>.
Its a common problem due to inherent issues with Neon. Your best bet is 
to compile your own version of SVN client, including patches that have 
been submitted on Neon Mailing list for Neon 0.26.x (I haven't had luck 
with Neon Trunk to successfully compile SVN client), as this issue 
doesn't seem to be on horizon for a bug fix release. Its been known for 
a while. Good news is user submitted patches work.

TortoiseSVN has very comprehensive build instructions, so it should be 
fairly straight forward for you to fix it.

Hope this helps,

Shirish
