"Expected version '1' of repository; found no version...
Hello,
I'm getting the following message when I try viewing the repository in my
browser: "Expected version '1' of repository; found no version at all; is
'/usr/local/svn-repo' a valid repository path?"
--Yes, it is. I can do a co of the repository from the local machine using
the file:/// convention
I'm running the server on SuSE 8.0 using the Berkeley DB (4.0.14) that comes
with the distro. I tried using version 4.1.24 from sleepycat but it has
some problems with the number of parameters being passed in some function.
The subversion I'm have had the most luck with is the package I downloaded
called subversion-r3200. I tried building everything from scratch using a
fresh copy of subversion plus snapshots of apr and apr-util and the latest
neon. It was horrible.
I have also tried both the snapshot of httpd-2.0 and httpd-2.0.43.tar.gz. I
seem to have more luck with the packaged tarball that includes the apr and
apr-util.
Is there a known good configuration I can use where all the parts play nice
together?
Thanks,
Gordon Sullivan

Notice, however, that it *is* in a milestone :-).
Some comments on the patch attached there:

Those pleas are written in internal comments, not in the public
interfaces. But the pleas *are* essentially interface requirements,
so they need to be made explicit, or else it will never be
maintainable.

The httpd process is running as the same user that owns the repository, and
just for giggles I did a chmod -R 777 of the repository. Same deal. I looked
at the source for the error message and saw errcode="165005". Does that help?
I also double checked that the path to the repository in the httpd.conf file.
It is the correct path.
Thanks for your help

It looks like the httpd process doesn't have read access.

Subversion HEAD (and probably r3200 as well) should work with
APR/Apache 2.0.43 and BDB 4.0.14. You need to use Subversion HEAD and
APR/Apache HEAD to use BDB 4.1.24.

You should be able to use
SVNPath /usr/local/svn-repo/project1
to access a single repository, or
SVNParentPath /usr/local/svn-repo
to access all repositories under svn-repo.

You need to build Apache with --with-dbm=db4 and
--with-berkeley-db=/some/path, see the Subversion INSTALL file.

That was kind of dumb of me... the real reference is the INSTALL document,
of course (which is what Philip pointed out).

Most distributions have older copies of DB residing in /lib and/or /usr/lib.
My RedHat 7.x has the following:
/lib/libdb-3.1.so
/lib/libdb-3.2.so
/lib/libdb.so
/usr/lib/libdb-3.2.a
/usr/lib/libdb-3.2.la
/usr/lib/libdb-3.2.so
/usr/lib/libdb.so.2
/usr/lib/libdb.so.3
/usr/lib/libdb1.a
/usr/lib/libdb1.so
/usr/lib/libdb1.so.2
/usr/lib/libdb2.a
/usr/lib/libdb2.so
/usr/lib/libdb2.so.3
And I've also got my db4 installation, of course.

That's just it. I don't have a version of Berkeley DB that old. This was
done using the Berkeley DB that ships with SuSE 8.0 which is 4.0.14. I
didn't understand that error message either.

I can't believe you'd have a version of Berkeley DB that old (we're at
least 4.0.14 or 4.1.24 now), but I guess I should ask... ?

I'm pretty sure I was doing it wrong.
I had created the directory /usr/local/svn-repo to act as a container. I then
did a svnadmin create /usr/local/svn-repo/project1. In the httpd.conf file I
referenced /usr/local/svn-repo instead of /usr/local/svn-repo/project1. After
changing the httpd.conf to reference /usr/local/svn-repo/project1 I get a
different error.
human-readable errcode="160000"
Bad database version: 2.4.14
I really appreciate you helping me with this.

Does the file /usr/local/svn-repo/format exist? Does it have a first
line consisting of the digit "1"?
Can the svn user run 'cat /usr/local/svn-repo/format'?

I created a 'svn' user account that owns the repository and the apache server

This is most likely a permissions problem - check the uid and gid
Apache is running under and make sure they can both read and write to
the repository.
And yes, a better error message would be appropriate - there is an
issue filed about this.
