Error when commit
Hi all,
I have encountered an error when committing my work:
svn: APR does not understand this error code
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn:
failed to open activity db; check repos perms.
As the error says, it is probably some screwed up permissions, but I
can't figure out where the problem is. I can list and status the
repository, browse the repository without problem, it only happens on
commit...
Below is the permission settings:
likwoka@phoenix:/home/system/svn/repos_backup/db$ ls -aslh

The above ones look fine.

These look suspect. Try changing these to be the same as the others.

Thanks, changed the permission of the file 'activities' within dav/ and
I can commit now.

The activity db is private to mod_dav_svn, and lives in the dav/
directory of your repository, not the db/ area.
