SVN Zip generation + externals

[conner686]

I have some code that I'm sharing between several projects that I've got set up as externals. It seems to work fine, until I try to create a ZIP for the project. I think its being asked for a password, and not knowing what to give it; it says something about password for apache and that it can't read stdin.

I thought maybe the issue is that the library code was on googlecode, so I created a new project here and pointed everything to look at it instead, and the error still occurs.

I'm not overly familiar with SVN usage [I'm basically learning as I go specifically for addon development], is there some property I don't have set right, or is this not going to be possible?

You set the external to the https:// version of the google code repository. This requires authentication, which we obviously cannot provide. You should use the http:// version of the repository address in the external.

That makes sense, and I'll shift things back to see if that works better. At the moment, though, I had switched to referencing a project here rather than googlecode in an attempt to avoid authentication issues, but they still exist. Is that intentional?

Fetching external item into 'trunk/Libs/dzjrGUI' Authentication realm: dzjrGUI - WoWInterface SVN Repository Password for 'apache': Authentication realm: dzjrGUI - WoWInterface SVN Repository Username: svn: Can't read stdin: Invalid argument Failed during export

*edit: switching to http instead of https did do the trick, so thanks

That repository is not publically accessible.. thus it requires authentication. No voodoo here, we can only get to public repositories.

OK, just making sure. I've got it working fine now, so I'm happy. Thanks.
