Cause

Cause #1 - multiple repositories using different credentials

See the following page: SVN Authentication Issues

Cause #2 - Windows Authentication

The Subversion server is setup to allow Windows Authentication only but Fisheye is trying to use Basic Authentication.

Resolution

Resolution for Cause #1

Refer to the options on the following page: SVN Authentication Issues

Resolution for Cause #2

Configure Subversion server to allow Basic Authentication.
