[Cruisecontrolrb-users] svn credentials

I was able to successfully add my project to cruisecontrol.rb using:

     ./cruise add <my_project> --url <my project svn url as reported  
by 'svn info'> --username <my_svn_username> --password <my_svn_pass>

and my project's source was correctly checked-out to the [cruise data]  
directory.   However, attempting to run ./cruise start fails with error:

Build loop failed
BuilderError: svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/ 
<rest_of_url_to_myproject_trunk>'

It seems like cruise is not sending the proper SVN credentials to  
update the source in the main build loop.

Per this other post:  http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/cruisecontrolrb-users/2008-June/000539.html 
, it seems like adding --username and --password are not needed in the  
project config, so long as you do an 'svn up' from the work directory  
of that project.  So I executed 'svn up' in the work directory  
(successfully), and retried './cruise start' again, but it still did  
not fix the error.

I also tried defining a new Subversion instance inside of  
cruise_config.rb and defining the username, password, url as  
arguments, but that also had no positive effect.

How do I resolve this?

Thanks,

-Michael
