Apache subversion unable to open another ext4 partion svn repository
Hi,
Whenever I am trying to access repository which is located in another ext4
partition,I get an error as
<D:error><C:error/><m:human-readable errcode="13">
Can't open directory
'/media/sense/20457332-fd6a-409d-821d-6bf368ecf6bd/svn': Permission denied
</m:human-readable></D:error>
How to I resolve this error and successfully access it via localhost first
Thanks,
Kushal

There have been multiple. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692573
shows up in a fast Google search: that was admittedly from 2011. I'll also
acknowledge that it's gotten better. A fast search used to show a lot more
reports of poor behavior with SELinux entirely disabled.

In my experience, it's not noticeably slower than running SELinux at all.
And "permissive" can be a very useful tool to guide where and how, you
arrange Subversion server components for consistentcy with the already
activated web server SELinux policies. It's also helpful to point out where
your models of web configuration may be a little...... odd, and themselves
a source of error.

Nico: Please state references to these bugs. I have not heard anything
about them.
Setting it to "permissive" is fine if you are going to actually use
"audit2allow" to set a policy and then turn things back on. Otherwise it
is slower and accumulating data unnecessarily.

Do *not* disable SELinux while debugging it. Set it to "permissive".
There have been a serious of nasty bugs when switching from "enabled" to
"disabled", the likes of which get senior sysadmins paid good money to say
that sort of things.

Kushal:
Just as a slight possibility, you might check to see that the SELinux stuff
is turned off (use the "sestatus" command). If it's not disabled/off then
you're going to have to allow the http account to access that data by
setting the appropriate security context throughout all directories from
the root ('/') down to where the SVN data is stored in that 2nd EXT4
partition - and then the entire SVN data tree.
Cheers.

# below. (3) mod_authz_svn is a svn-specific authorization module
# which offers fine-grained read/write access control for paths
# within a repository. (The first two layers are coarse-grained; you
# can only enable/disable access to an entire repository.) Note that
# mod_authz_svn is noticeably slower than the other two layers, so if
# you don't need the fine-grained control, don't configure it.
# Basic Authentication is repository-wide. It is not secure unless
# you are using https. See the 'htpasswd' command to create and
# manage the password file - and the documentation for the
# 'auth_basic' and 'authn_file' modules, which you will need for this
# (enable them with 'a2enmod').
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion Repository"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd
# To enable authorization via mod_authz_svn (enable that module
separately):
#<IfModule mod_authz_svn.c>
#AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.authz
#</IfModule>
# The following three lines allow anonymous read, but make
# committers authenticate themselves. It requires the 'authz_user'
# module (enable it with 'a2enmod').
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>

The Subversion server process (svnserve or httpd) is unable to access
(read) the path. Adjust the ownership and permissions so that the server
process has the required privileges.
