SVN checkout fails with "Could not read... " error

Question

My PC (client)
OS windows7 32bit
Tortoise SVN ver 1.7.5

I've been able to SVN update to the repository and after few month, my coworker tried to checkout whole project (web app) and had svn error.

I tried the same, create new folder and checkout my project then I got:

REPORT of '/svnrepos/!svn/vcc/default': Could not read status line: Secure
connection truncated (https://foobar.jp)

I did svn cleanup as suggested by few people on the web which had no effect.

It seems like every time the error is different. I'm also getting:

REPORT of '/svnrepos/!svn/vcc/default': Could not read response body: Secure

and

REPORT of '/svnrepos/!svn/vcc/default': Could not read chunk delimiter: Secure

Also some says there might be a corrupted file in the repository. And I deleted every file one by one to see if particular file is causing this error and no particular file causing this.

I also updated my Tortoise SVN version to 1.7.5 which is the newest.

The size of files I'm trying to checkout is about 30 MB which is not big at all.

I'm done all I can think of but still not able to solve this problem. Could anyone encounter this before?

Actually I haven't tried that! But what does it do to svn? Does restart clear something that might be causing? — Meow

I don't know ;) I got similar errors earlier this week and restarting the (apache2-)server helped. — Tobias Schlegel

Restarting Apache fixed the problem. Now I wonder what was the cause of this and why restarting fixes the issue. Thanks to Tobias for mentioning it :) +1

Running in Eclipse I had the same issue but restarting the server where SVN was set-up didn't do the trick for me. I managed to get round this by changing the SVN client in Eclipse to use 'SVNKit (Pure Java)'.

Windows > Preference > SVN > [SVN interface] > 'SVNKIT (Pure Java) SVNKit v1.7.4.9190'

Hope this helps somebody having the same problem.
