Can't login in your repository 403 ->Free user
First of all I want to thank XP-DEV for this great free service. We use it for our student research project.
The Problem:
I was wondering why we cannot login in our project since last update.
If you use a SSL (https) URL, you need to change it into the http URL.
The last Update doesn’t allow ssl for free users anymore. (wasn’t communicated well)
Doing this in eclipse:
1. Change Perspective into SVN Repository Perspective
2. Use the Icon SVN Repository in the lower left corner
3. Choose your https://.... Source
4. Rightclick -> Relocate...
5. Follow the dialog (insert your http:// URL)
Greetings from Germany.

Well, when it comes to SSL, the connection with the server is encrypted, so, you do have (some!) guarantee that there are no prying eyes.
Don’t think anyone can hack into your repository unless they peek into network traffic and see your password.
On the question of upgrading, it all depends on what you’re storing in your repository. If its really valuable IP and code, then I would recommend upgrading. Otherwise, if its just a pet project then yeah, I support non-SSL is fine. (disclaimer: I run xp-dev.com)
@Dave85 – you should really either create a support ticket for your issue, or create a new forum topic as its not at all related to the issue here. BUT, your problem is that you’re logging in with your username in lowercase, i.e. dave85 - try it with the exact case, i.e. Dave85
@Wilby1976 it seems that you have two users ? You’re logging in as the second user (cached by your Subversion client). That second user does not have permissions on that repository.
I would suggest sticking to a single user as much as possible. (Our ToS does indicate that you’re only supposed to have a single user per person).
You do not have sufficient permissions to comment

Much appreciated. Will be useful for other Eclipse users
