Novell Forge svn is permanently down!!!

Hi All,

This is a heads up to anyone working from our svn repository. Yesterday afternoon as I tried to do an svn commit I got an error that it could not connect to the server. I figured it was a temporary issue but it was down still this morning so I did a quick google for "novell forge svn is down" and what I found totally caught me off guard. Apparently the service is shut down completely and I was never notified it was coming and did not see the announcement about it. So I had no time to prepare and migrate to another project hosting. Of course I still have the latest version of the code on my machine but all the history of changes is lost as far as I know.

See this blog post for more details.

Best,

Joe

Hi Stas,

I just completed the initial checkin at Codeplex, you should be able to do svn checkout with https://mojoportal.svn.codeplex.com/svn/trunk

Best,

Joe

Re: Novell Forge svn is permanently down!!!

I tried few times  and everytime the checkout halted at the following file:

\web\setup\applications\mojoportal-core\SchemaUpgradeScripts\mssql\2.2.1.8.config.

This is weird.

Re: Novell Forge svn is permanently down!!!

Just tried on an VirtualBox Ubuntu 10.4 64bit there it was no problem with the checkout
so it must be a problem with either win 7, TortoiseSVN or SVN
