Jenkins complains about unauthorized SVN URL, but actually can access it, since IT IS authorized

      I want Jenkins to check SVN every few minutes for changes. So I give a URL to check: svn://host/some/path/project/trunk. Jenkins says, I am not authenticated. So I follow the link to authenticate. As I want to authenticate only once for all projects, I provide the URL svn://host, not the complete path to one particular project. I give user and password, and Jenkins says the authentication is OK.

      When I come back to the job config, Jenkins still warns that the authentication is not working. I ignore this and start a build, and look, Jenkins can access the SVN repository without problems. So I go back to the config, and still Jenkins says, it cannot authenticate... weird.

          The funny thing is that at some later time when I check again the config, the warning is gone.
          Tried it several times, always with the same behaviour: The warning will stay there for rather long time, then suddenly is gone.
          Browser is IE9.

          Same here. Digget out all available logs in centos 5.6 but only trace found that svn auth through AD and LDAP was failing for some users. Fixed it by reverting to plugin version 1.44. I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE to use version 1.45.

          Affecting Jenkins v1.494 installation @ jdk7 , tomcat7 , win 2k8 r2 x64 sp1 datacenter.
