Jenkins: FAILED: svn: E175002: OPTIONS

Today I faced some issues in Jenkins ver 1.602, Here I am telling how I resolved this issue

Jenkins: Jenkins ver. 1.602

Exception: Caused by: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Received fatal alert: protocol_version

Solution

1. First upgrade subversion installed in O.S

   for this I added yum repo 

      vi /etc/yum.repos.d/wandisco-svn.repo

 [WandiscoSVN]
name=Wandisco SVN Repo
baseurl=http://opensource.wandisco.com/centos/6/svn-1.8/RPMS/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
Reference: http://tecadmin.net/install-subversion-1-8-on-centos-rhel/

2.  Do an svn checkout with non interactive mode.

mkdir test
cd test
svn co --non-interactive --username your_name https://svn.server.com/repository/trunk


You can see the below four files getting created under .subversion/auth folder in home directory
svn.simple
svn.ssl.client-passphrase
svn.ssl.server
svn.username


3. Downgrade the subversion plugin in jenkins

4. start tomcat with following parameter in CATALINA_OPTS in catalina.sh
