Enabling the logs

Subversion ALM writes traces in the JIRA logs. However, this feature is disabled by default and you have to explicitly authorize the plugin for that:

JIRA > Administration > System > Logging and Profiling > Default Loggers > Configure:

• Package Name: com.kintosoft.jira,  com.kintosoft.svnwebclient and, org.polarion.svnwebclient  (three packages)
• Logging Level: DEBUG

Please repeat the test and send the relevant traces for supporting.

Keep in mind that the configuration above is automatically reset if JIRA is re-started so you have to grant the plugin to write in the JIRA logs again.

The 404 Error (or other unexpected errors on pages)

The Atlassian's JIRA Subversion plugin must be uninstalled and Subversion ALM re-installed again.

A lot of warnings in the logs: Dangerous use of multiple connections

Subversion ALM reuses one Jira database connection pool to run several queries and this is logging a warning, perhaps the overall execution took a while reducing the number of available free connections at the pool. However, none has reported this causes performance issues on any Jira instance.

From Jira 9.0,1 only one query is performed per connection. This takes the connection from the pool for a shorter time.

A lot of errors in the Jira logs (caused by a service)

Subversion ALM does not use Jira services.

This error is caused by the discontinued Atlassian's plugin Subversion for Jira. It has a bug and the service is not removed along with the app and it remains active causing errors. It must be manually removed from the Jira administration services section and reboot Jira.

Cannot authenticate on a repository on Windows

Add the following configuration to Jira service configuration and re-start Jira:

-Dsvnkit.http.methods=Basic,Digest,Negotiate,NTLM
