Perhaps this is due to the jre update. On Linux, the SVN plugin was used to fail when connecting hhtps when using the open JDK.
To find out the problem, try checking the workspace log in /workspace/.metadata/. I suggest you delete the log file and then run your eclipse and try to create an error. Most likely, the plugin gets an exception that is not handled (or handled incorrectly), and you can probably find out what happened to the log file.
