SSL error: certificate verify failed
is indication of client-side error. Try to check certificate chains on good and bad location, find missing intermediate certificate (I expect this result) and move it to appropriate place
Fix: I overlooked Mac as source, had Win in mind. Server certs usually live in ~/.subversion/auth/svn.ssl.server/ , you can copy needed file from good client
Adds: if you aren't security-concerned, you can simply use svn checkout --non-interactive --trust-server-cert https://....
I resolve that problem as follows:
- Go with Chrome (or other browser that allows to save the certificate) to svn address
- Save the certificate file
- Install it into Trusted Root Center of Certificates (that could be named with other words, I dont know how exactly that named in english)
Also, changing svn client (from svn tortoise) to another solves problem too.
