Getting SK working on Beet

Posted by on 15 Nov 2011 in Activity log

This morning there was a wrinkle getting SK started working on the newly-built Beet machine, which is running Oneiric; I'll detail it here because it may crop up again, and it took me a while to figure it out.

Symptoms: doing an initial SVN checkout of the repo would not work. The terminal challenged the user for a null gnome-keyring password, and whatever password was provided, it then failed to authenticate with the SVN server, and did not provide any opportunity to provide the SVN user name and password. This bug may be related.

Eventually I came upon this solution, which worked:

rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring

We were then able to checkout successfully from SVN using the --username switch.
