When trying to upgrade observium I'm prompted for a root pw
[juser@observium logs]$ sudo svn update [sudo] password for juser: Updating '.': Authentication realm: http://svn.observium.org:80 Observium Professional Repository Password for 'root':
Looking through our password vault I don't see a "root" user for observium upgrades.
I do see another user ID labeled "Observium SVC" and the original system owner noted "used for upgrades". But as the only instruction for the upgrade is "svn update", it's not clear to me where this other username would come into play.
Looking through the observium update doc I don't see any reference to being prompted for a root password nor an alternate svn user.
Insight appreciated.
Thanks,
Michael
This is svn trying to log in as the root user to the observium svn-server. you should log in as your observium user you got when you bought it.
Press enter and it will ask for the username. it just assumes root since you do sudo and you do svn up as the root user.

Try running it from the actual Observium directory instead of logs/ which is not in SVN. It'll then remember the username you used before ;-)
