Description
Numerous user requests show that Subversion is unable to authenticate against NTLM/SSPI proxy properly resulting in the following error messages while other programs (such as FireFox, IE etc) work as expected without requesting any credentials: C:\>svn co https://colorer.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/colorer/trunk/colorer colorer svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svnroot/colorer/trunk/colorer' svn: PROPFIND of '/svnroot/colorer/trunk/colorer': Could not create SSL connection through proxy server (https://colorer.svn.sourceforge.net) C:\>svn co http://colorer.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/colorer/trunk/colorer colorer svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svnroot/colorer/trunk/colorer' svn: PROPFIND of '/svnroot/colorer/trunk/colorer': 407 Proxy Authentication Required (http://colorer.svn.sourceforge.net) Proxy is Squid with all necessary WebDAV requests allowed, detailed logs are at http://www.svnforum.org/2017/viewtopic.php?t=1967 Users mailing list complaints: http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/BrowseList?list=users&by=thread&from=305450 - no solution http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/BrowseList?list=users&by=thread&from=436850 - advice to use ntlmaps - complicated, requires python proxy server to be constantly running in console window, and may not work with SSPI http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=35246 - the same problem with libraries from TSVN, no comments http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/BrowseList?list=users&by=thread&from=331129 - ntlmaps again http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=23231 and http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=23236 - another complaint and advice to use local administrator http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=users&&msgNo=43184 - and another one http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=19416 - complaint http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=46019 - request to leave an option to switch to basic authentication at least http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=42702 - possible solution! http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=43187 - another mail that agrees it is an issue that is not closed yet despite of the following bugs: http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/buglist.cgi?Submit+query=Submit+query&component=subversion&issueidtype=include&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&long_desc=ntlm&long_desc_type=substring&order=Issue+Number Developers discussion: Seems like NTLM proxy authentication support is disabled at compilation stage http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=122533 it could also be that this link from above contains the solution http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=42702
