Redmine connects to SVN over SSL

Question

I'm having trouble connecting Redmine to a locally hosted subversion repository using SSL.

I suspect this is a self-signed certificate that usually triggers a warning in the SVN client and browser.

When I try to connect to a local repo via SSL in Redmine, I get a red "Revision unavailable" error. When I try to connect through svn://, the connection time ends and I have to restart the web server.

A connection without SSL works without problems.

It would be nice to run subversion on SSL to make it secure and accessible from the outside. I can run the repository via simple HTTP, but would like to use SSL for external communication. As far as I understand, subversive activity cannot be carried out simultaneously in both directions.

Does anyone know what to do in such a situation? Is there a configuration parameter to ignore invalid certificates somewhere?

Answer 1

Looking at the source, everything that redmine does is a wrapper for the svn binary, see http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/repository/entry/trunk/lib/redmine/scm/adapters/subversion_adapter.rb

Answer 3

since you control both the client and the server, does the client agree with the authority to issue a server certificate?

If this is not a permanent option, at least you would know if there was a problem if you did it temporarily.
