Apache 2.0.52 won't load mod_authz_svn.so or mod_dav_svn.so under Windows Server 2003

I've done a Windows Server 2000 test installation of Apache 2.0.52 and
Subversion 1.1.1.  I got everything working fine.  My production
server arrived and I've repeated the installation under Windows Server
2003.  Apache now fails to start, writing to the application event log
one of the following 2 entries:


The Apache service named  reported the following error:
>>> Cannot load C:/Apache2/modules/mod_dav_svn.so into server: The
specified module could not be found.

---OR---

The Apache service named  reported the following error:
>>> Cannot load C:/Apache2/modules/mod_authz_svn.so into server: The
specified module could not be found.

C:/Apache2/modules is where all the modules are stored.

My httpd.conf contains these LoadModule statements:
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so

I've tried reversing the order of these two LoadModule lines.
Whichever module is loaded first in the module reported as not being
found.  All the other modules load, so I'm stumped.  Does the event
log message "The specified module could not be found" really mean it
wasn't found, or can it also mean that the module could not be
successfully loaded and initialized.  Maybe I've got a DLL dependency
somehow not satisfied?  I've installed Subversion into c:\Program
Files\subversion and c:\Program Files\subversion\bin is on my system
PATH.

Thanks,
-Mike Kelley

We had the same problem. Put both the "%ProgramFiles%\Subversion\bin" 
folder and the "%ProgramFiles%\Apache Group\Apache\bin" folder into the 
global system's PATH envirionment variable and reboot the server.

To trouble shoot loading problems like this, dependency walker at 
http://www.dependencywalker.com is a very helpful tool.

I got almost the same situation, but nobody helped me.
One solution , that I developed is to run apache from user with admin 
privileges

 This may happens when subversion dlls are not found into the %PATH% or
apache\bin folder.
 I've got the same error and resolved it by copying *.dll from
subversion\bin to apache\bin folder. If in apache\bin folder you find the
same dll just skip copy.

Good luck
