Another...Could not open the requested SVN filesystem...

Ok, I'm just getting SVN going with Subclipse and Apache.  I can connect to
repositories using file:/// method, but not through apache.  From the apache
error log...

[Fri Jun 08 11:23:45 2007] [error] [client 192.168.11.60] (20014)Error
string not specified yet: Can't open file 'D:\\svn"\\test\\format': The
filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.  
[Fri Jun 08 11:23:45 2007] [error] [client 192.168.11.60] Could not fetch
resource information.  [500, #0]
[Fri Jun 08 11:23:45 2007] [error] [client 192.168.11.60] Could not open the

[Fri Jun 08 11:23:45 2007] [error] [client 192.168.11.60] Could not open the
requested SVN filesystem  [500, #720123]

I'm on WinServer2k3 and using Apache 2 and SVN 1.3.2  (I think)

I've given "Everyone" full control over the svn directory and
subdirectories.....

I have a user set up in the passwd file in my svn\conf directory...

What other info can I provide?

Thanks for any help...

The quotes are not a problem. They're not needed, true, but they're  
not harmful. I like being in the habit of using the quotes whenever I  
can, so that I don't forget to use them in the rare cases when they  
are required (when the item being quoted contains spaces).

Paths in the Apache conf should use forward slashes, not backslashes,  
even on Windows. The line should read:

SVNParentPath "D:/svn"

I think the problem was probably that the backslash before the  
closing quote was escaping the closing quote and causing it to become  
part of the path, which was not what you intended.

Drop the trailing slash on SVNParentPath, and remove the quotes from
all of your paths. You're using short names with no spaces, so they're
definitely not needed.

Here's the location information...I've tried SVNPath &
SVNParentPath...because I have multiple repositories under this location.

<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath "D:\svn\"
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthUserFile "D:\svn\conf\passwd"
Require valid-user
</Location>
