I can not see any problem: $ darcs --version 2.5.2 (release) $ darcs changes --repo http://cyber.com.au/~twb \| wc -l 7283 Can you describe problem? Can you try execute that command with --debug-verbose? Thanks!

It was almost certainly a permissions problem; it's working now. The error claimed it wasn't a repo at all, which led me astray.

Ok. And it seems that beta version of the darcs (2.7.98.1) already provides in error message also HTTP Error code (e.g. 401, 404). But I'm not able to track down the exact issue number related to this improvement.
