      Description

      This is a follow-up on JENKINS-21785. We're bitten by the dreaded E200015: ISVNAuthentication provider did not provide credentials exception noted there. We have, however, set up additional credentials for all of our externals and most of the time this setup works, despite when its not. This happens only for every third to fifth build, so there seems to be a timing regression issue in there which makes our builds very unstable and flaky.

      Right now we have about five to six builds that use an SVN checkout with externals, of which four could be executed at the same time (the build slave they're running on, a Mac Mini, has four build processors).

      This is the complete stack trace:

            I'd prefer to leave this ticket open as Jesse Glick's code is only better error messages.  Really, the underlying code needs to be fixed so that it is intuitive and doesn't require comment strings to match.

            Well I was not proposing to close JENKINS-32167 just on the basis of improving error messages.

            Jesse Glick, fair enough.  I wasn't sure what the long term plan was.  I'm okay with this being marked as a duplicate of JENKINS-32167.

            Is this problem resolved in some other way, e.g. by using a newer Jenkins / SVN plugin / Credentials plugin?

            Is there a workaround other than just restarting the job (additional credentials didn't make it work)?

            And if the answers for both questions is No, then is there at least an ETA for the issue to be fixed anytime soon?

            Dimitar Sakarov, as stated in JENKINS-32167, there is no owner or maintainer of this plugin.  There is a workaround provided in comments under JENKINS-32167.  Jesse Glick provided some better feedback code, but I don't think that has ever shipped.  I looked at it and wrote a test case demonstrating the problem, but solving it was too complicated for the time I could devote to it.

            I don't think anything has changed since then.   Wish someone would step up and fix it for us users, but I'm not expecting it until the SVN plugin is totally busted.
