FS FileSystem and FreeBSD
I was wondering if anyone knows if using the FSFS will alleviate the
mod_dav_svn issues that are currently occurring due to APR issues with
Apache2 for FreeBSD?
Thanks,
Steve

Hmmm. I've seen this problem on my systems, however the port installed
fine. The problem I saw was that at run-time (i.e. trying to invoke any
of the subversion executables) the dynamic linker was complaining about
not finding the libapr shared library. (Sorry, I don't have a record of
exactly what the error was.)
My two repository servers are running 4.10-STABLE. Port revisions as
follows:
apache-2.0.50 = up-to-date with port
subversion-1.0.5 = up-to-date with port
Build arguments:
'devel/subversion' => 'WITH_MOD_DAV_SVN=yes WITH_SVNSERVE_WRAPPER=yes'
'www/apache2' => 'WITH_BERKELEYDB=db42'
...argh. While I was trying to get all the information togther to
document what I thought was a reasonable workaround, I discovered that I
had an extra copy of the libapr libraries (built along with apache2)
that portupgrade stashed away for backward compatibility. That's bound
to make a difference in some bizarre way.
Anyways. One possible workaround is to do "ldconfig -m
/usr/local/lib/apache2". I think this was alluded to in PR 67130 as an
ugly hack, but I don't care...I need to keep a couple of repositories
working.
I'm off to go try to understand what's going on with my two repository
servers now...like why they're working at all. :-p

I use BSD but don't compile subversion from the ports but download and
compile it manually and it all runs fine.

I kind of figured as much. Oh well, thanks for the answer.

That's a FreeBSD Port specific problem, and use of FSFS instead of BDB
will not make any difference. We still link against apr-util, so you'll
still need that library.

I guess the best place to start is here:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=67130 This describes the issue,
and what is going on. Since it's primarily a FreeBSD issue it seems, I've
received the response here before to actually contact the port maintainer.
Unfortunately the issue above seems to have stagnated, and I haven't been
able to get much information out of the port maintainer.

Well, without some more details (like, for example, what error you're
seeing) I don't see how anyone is going to give you a reasonable answer.
So far what you're saying doesn't make a whole lot of sense, so I
imagine you're going to have to start from more basic information about
what's actually happening rather than starting by telling us, in very
nonspecific terms, what you think the problem is.

I wish I could provide more information. Unfortunately I don't really
understand what is happening on. I was hoping for someone on this list who
was using FreeBSD to have some input. Basically it seems to deal with the
Apache2 placement of its libaprutil-0.so.9 file, and that which SVN, or the
SVN port at least expects the file to be located. So if mod_dav_svn access
to an FSFS repo still requires that object, then the problem still exists.
That's the best I can explain it, sorry.

You're going to have to be a LOT more specific. What kind of issues are
you talking about?
