SVN checkout error

Hi everyone,

I am having problems getting CruiseControl to checkout a fresh copy of
our project from SVN. I couldn't get the Ant SVN task to work with a
supplied username and password, so I did it via exec like this:

<exec executable="svn">
  <arg line="co -r HEAD --username USER --password PASS
--non-interactive svn+ssh://PATH/TO/REPOSITORY"/>
</exec>

However, this results in me getting errors:

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

Thanks,
Tom

P.S. - Yes, the username and password I am providing work, and I can
checkout the project when I execute that _same_ svn command from the
command-line.
