Cannot Checkout, "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"


My SVN repo is on Cloudforge. I use VS2012 with AnkhSvn for dev. In my Windows Explorer, I am using TortoiseSVN v1.8.7

I am trying to "checkout" my entire project into a fresh folder. It has 2 folders, 1 for the web application, and 1 for the data layer code.

I right clicked within the empty folder and click on Checkout. All seems fine then it suddenly stops with the message:

Error retrieving REPORT: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

I have Googled this widely experienced issue, but to no avail regarding a solution. Can you recommend some solutions to attempt.

Thanks.

EDIT1:

StackTrace received when attempting Checkout via AnkhSVN.

Solution

  • If it worked with AnkhSVN previously and now suddenly stopped then the root cause is most likely on the side of CloudForge hosting. Contact their support or wait.
