Prevent SVN locking and slow response between Talend Administration Center, Subversion and Talend Studio
Symptoms
There can be several symptoms for this issue. It can manifest itself as a slow response, with a job taking several minutes to save, or as an SVN locking issue. Most of the time, you will find that Studio takes too long to save the jobs.
Resolution
The SVN configuration in Talend Administration Center has been enhanced since version 5.5.1. Two URLs are required, the Server Location URL and the Library Location URL. It is very important that the two locations are not identical and that two different SVN repositories are being used.
On Windows, you must set up two SVN repositories in VisualSVN and set up correct user permissions on both repositories.
Creating and configuring two SVN repositories
This section explains how to create and configure two different SVN repositories in CentOS.
In this article, CentOS is used as an example. You should find the equivalent instructions for the distribution of Linux that you use. For the complete instructions on how to set up SVN with Apache Httpd on CentOS, see Subversion on CentOS.
Procedure
Configuring two SVN repositories in Talend Administration Center
This section explains how to configure the two repositories you created in Talend Administration Center.
The Server and Library URLs are used for different purposes and interact with the SVN repository for different events. In a multi-user environment, this quickly causes issues if both URLs point to the same location.
