[oXygen-user] SynchroSVN unable to connect to repository - error Malformed Network Data

[Sorin Ristache]

Hello,

Do you try to connect with the svn+ssh protocol? If yes the error svn: 
Malformed Network Data is caused usually by a shell script that is 
executed automatically in your account on the server when you login and 
that displays text to output console. When the text output is received 
by a client application that connects to the server by SSH that text 
violates the SVN protocol. Please make sure that this script does not 
send text to the output, that is the script does not display any text 
when you login to your account on the server with a normal SSH client 
where you type the commands and see the result in a text console. You 
should rename or remove the shell script to make sure the script sends 
no output text and try again to connct to the SVN repository with Syncro 
SVN Client. The script can be called .cshrc or .bashrc and is located in 
your home folder on the server.


Regards,
Sorin
