svn-push has uncaught SubversionException 170001

[Alexey Borzenkov]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new repository on your server (svnadmin create testme). Don't edit svnserver.conf and leave everything at its defaults.
2. Create a simple bzr branch with at least one revision in it.
3. Try bzr svn-push <your-server>/testme/trunk

You will see a traceback with SubversionException: (None, 170001), which is Authorization error.

Please see part of .bzr.log with a traceback attached.

This is a bug in Subversion, caused by there not being any worthy authentication mechanisms. Does committing to svn manually work?

[Alexey Borzenkov (snaury)]

Jelmer, no-no-no. This bug is only about traceback instead of an error message. svn-push should *not* (and can't) succeed in this scenario. svn gives "svn: Authorization failed" error message, which is correct behavior.

In that case, your bug report is incomplete. Please provide more
 information (such as a traceback) about how to reproduce this.
 Pushing to a svn:// URL doesn't raise such an exception but
 correctly prints a "Readonly connection" error. The generic exception
 converter also already handles 170001.

Cheers,

Jelmer

Jelmer, why is it incomplete? Isn't it already fixed?

It currently prints:
bzr: ERROR: Permission denied: "."

Which sounds pretty correct to me. :-/

Try for yourself:

bzr init myrepo2
cd myrepo2
echo "Some text here" >a.txt
bzr add && bzr commit -m "Initial commit"
bzr svn-push svn://kitsu.ru/empty-no-access/trunk

Sorry, something seems to've gone wrong here. I thought you were
reporting a new bug, but that doesn't appear to be the case.
