Unable to checkout files: Can't open file: Permission denied
This is my configuration.
<Location /myrepository>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /home/magnet/myrepository/
</Location>
The checkout command runs fine:
svn co http://localhost/myrepository/hachumachu
However, the commit command results in this error:
magnet@faku:~/hachumachu$ svn commit -m "Additional line"
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Can't open file
'/home/magnet/myrepository/hachumachu/db/txn-current-lock': Permission
denied
This appears in my Apache error log:
[Wed Apr 14 01:04:58 2010] [error] [client 127.0.1.1] Could not create
activity /myrepository/hachumachu/!svn/act/a3cb143e-3098-499b-b7d1-5d5b7e982881.

In case you want to see the permissions on the folders.

No, he already showed us that SVNParentPath, the way he originally had it, is correct:

He also said checking out works fine, so the path must be correct.

Unless he's changed the configuration. What does it say in the Apache error log - it should show the specific path where it's now looking for (and not finding) your repository.

Probably your http server isn't pointing to the correct path.
Check your Location in the httpd.conf
i.e.,
<Location /repos>
SVNPath /home/magnet/myrepository
</Location>

I could resolve the issue by adding www-data as a group owner of all
the directories files in the repository. Thanks Erik.
Jeremy, yes, I meant chmod. I typed it 'chown' instead by mistake.

I did that. I ran these two commands.
chgrp -R www-data myrepository
chown -R 770 myrepository
Now, I get this error:
$ svn commit -m "Updating"
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
Please help.

The user running apache needs write access to your repository.
