Posts Tagged ‘svn: OPTIONS request failed on’

Case

IntelliJ IDEA 7.x, version control with Subversion.
When I try to update the project, I get the following error:

Error:svn: unknown host myHost svn: OPTIONS request failed on /myProject/trunk/

On another hand, I can update the project thanks to TortoiseSVN. Then, I conclude the server exists and allows updates.

Fix

Firstly I thought of an issue of proxy, hence check your settings if you face the problem. Else:

• Shutdown IDEA
• Delete ~/.IntelliJIdea70/system/caches
• Restart IDEA
