I too had the error mentioned above when I was trying to build alfresco source code. I have SVN 1.5 installed. I read these comments and removed the javasvn.jar that is located at /trunk/HEAD/root/projects/3rd-party/lib/devenv inside alfresco source code and the error went off.

Thank you.

Same here – deleting javasvn.jar (from an old version of svnkit, I think) did the trick.

Found the cause, maybe.

Seems I had an old jar named svnjava.jar (or javasvn.jar, i forget which), that is no longer necessary, and just mucks things up. Things seems to work if I delete it.

Typically the users list on subclipse is the place to discuss the issue first, then there is a public issue system if you get an account.

A question, did you updgrade your installed subversion?

Hi Josh,

I’m not sure if you want this comment here or somewhere else like an issue tracking system, but you seem to be the dude to go to.

I pulled down the release candidate and am getting this error:

java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.tmatesoft.svn.core.javahl.SVNClientImpl.setProgressListener(Lorg/tigris/subversion/javahl/ProgressListener;)V

Is this something you can help with? I can post the full error message if you think it will help.

Congrats on taking over svnant!

Cheers,
Mike.
