Connector does not work with with svn+ssh and private key

[rde2]

Using SVNKit 1.10.10 r10865 connector in Eclipse 4.34 and 4.35. Cannot open repositories authenticated with a private key and URL like:

svn+ssh://user@host/repos

Continually get errors trying to connect to repository.

Error seems to be:

SEVERE: Failed while verifying host key: host:22

I would try to update SVNKit to 1.10.11 as in this version Apache SSHD has been updated and based on the posted stack trace Apache SSHD may be causing this this issue. https://svnkit.com/download.php

@rde2 Could you please explain in more details how connection is formulated?

I know that it works with https protected with SSL (private key with password)

[rde2]

This is the current Subversive connector (ArSysOp SVN Connectors with SVNKit 1.10) running in Eclipse 4.35. The Svnkit plugin is version 1.10.11:

plugins/org.tmatesoft.svnkit.svnkit_1.10.11.jar

Using jsvn from the same version on the command line connects to the repository without any problems. I've attached the installation report from Eclipse.

@rde2 I am pretty sure the hostkey must be stored to your operation-system (linux maybe?). This must be done outside of eclipse. Open a terminal and try to connect to the hostname manually. You could do that by the command ssh <host> for example: ssh example.com. Before the connection esablish, you will be asked if you trust the hostname example.com. Please confirm the trust to your host and try to commit using the connector again.
