Error E170013: The server unexpectedly closed the,connection.
Hi,
A user of SmartSVN with SVN 1.14 reports a problem in connecting to the
SVN server while it works in the browser. I redirected him to use our
self-built SVN 1.14 binaries and he reports following error
MacBook-Pro:user$ svn update
Updating '.':
*svn: E170013*: Unable to connect to a repository at URL '
https://svn.workapps.com/svn/OneWorkbook/trunk'
*svn: E120108*: Error running context: The server unexpectedly closed
the connection.
How to diagnose the problem? Is it a problem of SVN or the server?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Daniel and Brane,
Thanks for your feedback. I haven't heard back from the user whether
your suggestions solved the problem.

I concur, all of the above makes sense.

Not a Mac guy myself, but I on Windows would suspect proxy configurations
in the browser, application aware firewall that filter out requests from
Subversion or some trickery with the https certificate chain. I would
assume these are also possible on macOS. On corporate networks I have seen
firewalls or transparent proxy servers that decrypt https traffic and
filter based on for example user agent strings or usage patterns.
It seems Wireshark is available for macOS so I would start there to make
sure traffic is actually getting out of the box. Then working my way
through the network to see where the packages are dropped.
Kind regards

How valuable is the information that the user can access the SVN server
from a browser? How to analyze/debug the access to find out at what
stage it fails?

Just as a data point, I use svn-1.14 on macOS 10.15 all the time with no
problems. But I can't even connect to port 443 on this server, there's
no response, with or without Subversion. My guess would be that
something is wrong with the configuration on the server end, it sure
looks like it's just dropping packets.

Hi,
According to the user this error occurs now permanently on macOS 10.15
for him while in previous versions it only occurred sometimes with macOS
10.14/15, but not with 10.12/13.
