Hi!
I'm trying to install SVN on a latest version of CentOS (5.3). I just did:
yum install subversion
yum install mod_dav_svn
Then i edited /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf
and here is the content:
=======================<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /var/www/svn
# Limit write permission to list of valid users.
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
# Require SSL connection for password protection.
# SSLRequireSSL
AuthType Basic
AuthName "SVN 1"
AuthUserFile /etc/svn/svn-auth-conf
Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
</Location>
After, i did:
============mkdir -p //var/www/svn/applitv
svnadmin create /var/www/svn/applitv
svn mkdir file://localhost/var/www/svn/applitv/trunk -m "create"
svn mkdir file://localhost/var/www/svn/applitv/branches -m "create"
svn mkdir file://localhost/var/www/svn/applitv/tags -m "create"
chown -R apache:apache /var/www/svn
Finally, i created the AUTH file:
================================htpasswd -cm /etc/svn/svn-auth-conf user1
htpasswd -m /etc/svn/svn-auth-conf user2
I use the following URL to connect to the server:
================================================http://10.0.4.32/svn/applitv
And i receive the following response:
====================================This XML file does not appear to have any
style information associated
with it. The document tree is shown below.
?
<D:error>
<C:error/>
<m:human-readable errcode="13">
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
</m:human-readable>
</D:error>
In the log /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf, i have:
====================================================[Sun Oct 11 15:48:39 2009]
[error] [client 10.0.2.98] (20014)Internal

directory: The URI does not contain the name of a repository. [403,
#190001]
What i find very strange is this:
================================[root at svn mnt]# ll
/var/www/svn/applitv/format
-r--r--r-- 1 apache apache 2 Oct 11 11:40 /var/www/svn/applitv/format
The "format" file (which contains the value "5") is
readable.
I searched a lot on Google but i still can't figure out what's going on.
Any help would be appreciated!

Also, what are the permissions on the underlying directory (/var/www/svn/applitv) Also, I would recommend updating the version of your subversion and mod_dav_svn that's currently installed; there was a security vulnerability that could result in some nastyness (details at: http://freshmeat.net/articles/red-hat-updated-subversion-packages-fix-multiple-security-issues ) Ian -- Ian Wilson ian.m.wilson at gmail.com http://ianwilson.org || http://www.ians-blog.com Solving site load issues with database replication is a lot like solving your own personal problems with heroin -- at first, it sorta works, but after a while things just get out of hand.

If you are just starting out, I'd use whatever 1.6 version you can find in rpmforge or elsewhere. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
