Cannot start Apache 2 with mod_authz_svn.so.

[Bert Slagter <be...@procurios.nl>]

Good day!

I just installed the latest version of Subversion (0.24.2) with Apache
2.0.46 on a Slackware 9 (Linux 2.4.20) system as described in the INSTALL
file. I had to add the latest version of the Berkeley DB (4.1.25) to the
source tree manually to have a working Subversion Server.

I configured Apache 2 but when trying to start apache
(/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start) the following error occurs:

  Syntax error on line 231 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf:
  Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_authz_svn.so into server: 
  /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_authz_svn.so: undefined symbol:
dav_svn_split_uri

When I remove the line "LoadModule authz_svn_module
modules/mod_authz_svn.so" apache starts without a problem. I have really no
idea what might cause this problem: I can't find anything on it on the
mailinglist archives or in Google.

I don't also know what the implications are of not having loaded this
module, but I will probably find out soon ;).

Thanks,

Bert Slagter

Reverse the load order of mod_dav_svn and mod_authz_svn modules.
mod_dav_svn must be loaded first.

...is this a bug in our 'make install'?  For a fresh installation,
does the 'LoadModule mod_authz_svn' get added to httpd.conf *after*
the mod_dav_svn line?
