is subversion up?

I was going to have go at doing some PS2 programing - just for the sheer fun of it. I was trying to follow your tutorial on building the toolchain for PS2 dev using MinGW http://lukasz.dk/playstation-2-programm ... -tutorial/.

I get up to the step where I am to extract stuff from Subversion
Code:
svn export svn://svn.ps2dev.org/ps2/trunk/ps2toolchain

And when I execute it complains "Can't connect to host "svn.ps2.dev.org": A system call that should never fail has failed"

So I am just wondering if all this PS2 dev stuff is still up in Subversion. Or has the existance of the PS3 killed PS2 dev?

Relax, sometimes it's offline, as I heard. I tried now and it's working.

Hmmm. When it is offline what sort of error do you get? Because I am still getting the same error I reported before. Maybe it is an issue with my setup.

I can ping svn.ps2dev.org - sometimes. I had a 580ms ping time and one out of 4 lost packets. And then I pinged again and had 100% lost packets. So something is a bit flakey here.

Is there any authentication I need to do? Do I need a password?

I haven't had any trouble reaching the svn repo over the last two days. I've rerun the toolchain script and gotten the stuff for the sdk and everything else three times (completely) in the last 24 hours.

Have you tried the mirror?
http://psp.jim.sh/svn/

For your example it would be:
svn export svn://psp.jim.sh/svn/ps2/trunk/ps2toolchain

So I rejigged my internet filter to allow svn.exe TCP on port 3690 (I forgot I have both a firewall and now an internet filter) and I have converted my error from

Code: Select all

svn&#58; Can't connect to host 'psp.jim.sh'&#58; A system call that should never fail has failed.

to

Code: Select all

svn&#58; Can't connect to host 'psp.jim.sh'&#58; No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

But now on the main URL I have sucess.

Code: Select all

"Exported revision 1461."

Thanks for the input guys.

No, it would be
svn export http://psp.jim.sh/svn/ps2/trunk/ps2toolchain
