Cannot save subversion repository using Chrome version 83

[Ken Wood]

We are on bamboo 6.8.1 build 60805.

We recently started having a problem saving repository information - after clicking 'save' the icon just spins and spins and never completes. We found the problem does NOT happen with FireFox. It seems that the problem is some bad interaction between Bamboo and Chrome 83 (which just came out 2020-05-19). 

Is anyone else seeing this? Is Atlassian aware of this?

Hi @Ken Wood ,

Thanks for bringing this up. We do see a few customers experiencing the same issue you face. It appears that this is reproducible only on the latest version of Chrome and there is an open bug for this in Chromium community: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1084874

The workaround until this is fixed would be to use a different browser or downgrade your browser to an older version. The bug is fixed in Chrome stable 83.0.4103.97

We will likely come up with a KB article soon and share the link here for others to reference.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Jey

My browser just updated to 83.0.4103.97 and I tested - the problem is resolved!

That's wonderful to hear! Thanks for sharing the outcome.

As promised, I just wrote an article regarding this issue: Cannot save a repository using Chrome v83
