About subversion configure with apache2

[Steven Wee <wm...@gmail.com>]

Hi:

 

                I configure subversion works with apache2,and configure the
virtual host for working, I want used the "SVNListParentPath" option to show
all repository, and I configure the virtual host at apache2 used <Location
/> DAV svn .</Location>, when I visit the domain, I response the message:
"403 Forbidden This website requires you to log in.", can you help me to
resolve this problem?

 

                BTW: I used <Location /svn> DAV svn . </Location> is worked.

 

                Thanks

Probably...

...but it would help if you could provide more information about your current settings.  Are you on windoze or *nix?  Are you using http or https?  What is the contents of your apache config files (clean out usernames and passwords before posting).

How do you know your <Location> section is working?

As a first guess, something else in your configuration file(s) is specifying authentication and authorisation but we cannot tell yet.

What version of mod_dav_svn are you using on the server?
What version of Subversion client are you using to access it?
What version of Apache httpd 2?
What is the DocumentRoot and SVNParentPath for this virtual host? I just want to be sure that they do not overlap.
Are you using authz in the server configuration? I found this issue which might be related if you are:
