scm-manager subversion checkout results in E175009: The XML response contains invalid XML for imported repository

Question

I am sorry to open up such a topic again, but I haven't found any solved occurences.

Problem: I am running latest SCM-Manager 2.20.0 in docker on a vServer (no smb shares etc). I got a multiple Gigabytes sized svn dump and created a subversion repository and imported it as described in the documentation. When I check out from windows commandline (version 1.14.1 (r1886195)) I get the following errors after a while:

svn: E175009: The XML response contains invalid XML

svn: E130003: Malformed XML: no element found at line 14073566

Things I've tried:

• I created a subversion repository in SCM with a readme using the UI and the checkout worked.
• I created a local svn repo with the dump and the checkout worked (locally over svn://).
• I went ahead and ran svnadmin upgrade with that local repo, created a new dump and imported it to SCM, issue was still present.
• since I am running nginx as a reverse proxy I tried without and usinh http instead of https, problem was still there
• I read that someone tried to provide the repo using an additional svnserver to allow access over svn:// instead of https://, I believe that this will work, but that is not what I want.
• I collected some server logs with svnkit log level "Debug" but at least to me it doesn't ring a bell. (find log here)

So any idea or help would be appreciated, I can run a server without scmmanager but that's currently not my preferred solution.

Regards,

Marco

That was really it!!! Thank you so much Rene. Increasing the jetty.timeout solved the problem for me. Here's the server-config.xml for reference:
