If you selected native JavaHL connector, please check if binaries are available or install and select pure Java Subversion connector from the plug-in connectors update site.
If connectors already installed then you can change the selected one at: Window->Preferences->Team->SVN->SVN Connector.

Yes, I had the same problem. My environment is eclipse jee oxygen1.

I installed the subversive first. And when the eclipse popup the install connectors dialog and I select the connector, eclipse doesn't install the connector.

In the preference -> SVN page, the connector combo box is empty.

I solved as belows.

  1. install new software by http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/6.0/update-site/

  2. select Subversive SVN connectors, and SVNKit implementation both. The important is not only select Subversive SVN connectors, but also SVNKit implementation.

  3. install and restart.

As for eclipse photon, the svn connector problem seems to be resolved.

  1. Just install svn plugin(subversive) through eclipse marketplace. (eclipse marketplace locates in "Help - Eclipse Marketplace")

  2. set svn connector in the preference (window - preferences - team - SVN - SVN connector tab)

For those who above workarounds didn't resolve their problems, upgrade Eclipse Oxygen 1 to Eclipse Oxygen 3a. Seems to work like a charm with Subversive - SVN Team Provider 4.0.5

Reinstalling did the trick for me. In eclipse go to help>Eclipse Marketplace search again for svn. click on installed. Update.
