Hi I'm trying to use the maven release plug-in on Hudson. The build succeeds and after then, when hudson tries to release the project, it fails with the following error.
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Unable to commit files
Provider message:
The svn command failed.
Command output:

what I'm missing here. I have seen a few articles related to this on stackoverflow.But, they are not related to CHECKOUT.
I think its a problem with SVN, and because of that, maven cannot proceed. The person running the hudson can do the basic SVN commands on the command line.
Any help related to this will be appreciated.
This problem was solved by asking the person who owned the hudson process to do the release. It worked fine then. The problem we have is there is no shared user for hudson. The person who installed it owns it.
When we move to the new hudson box, we have to create a dedicated hudson user.
