Since upgrading to Fisheye 2.8.1 we are seeing connection failures on all our SVN repositories

Peter Nash

Since upgrading Fisheye all the SVN repos are failing to connect with errors similar to the following:

Unable to initialise repository Configuration due to com.cenqua.fisheye.config.ConfigException:Could not access svn+ssh://svn.changeworks.local/var/local/subversion/configuration/ : org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: svn: E210002: There was a problem while connecting to svn.changeworks.local:22

In the Fisheye log we are seeing errors like:

Caused by: org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNAuthenticationException: svn: E215003: Host key ('svn.changeworks.local:22 <ssh-rsa>') can not be verified.
