Urgent Help Required !!
Hi,
I have installed subversion-1.4.2 on FC6.The problem is that while trying to access the repository over http it gives me an error.The steps are listed below
Apache Server version = Apache/2.2.3
1> mkdir /usr/local/svn
2> svnadmin create /usr/local/svn/repository
3> Now i created a passwd file using htpasswd utility (the file is placed as /usr/local/apache2/bin/passwd)
./htpasswd -c passwd himanshu_raina
4>Then i created a file called svnaccessfile wherein the following access was defined
/usr/local/svn/repository/conf/svnaccessfile
---------------------------------------------------------------------
[groups]
admin = himanshu_raina
# Default access rule for ALL repositories
# Everyone can read, admins can write, Dan German is excluded.
[/]
* = r
@admin = rw
---------------------------------------------------------------------
5> In apache.conf i have added the following
<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNListParentPath on
SVNParentPath /usr/local/svn/
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache2/bin/passwd
AuthzSVNAccessFile /usr/local/svn/repository/conf/svnaccessfile
Require valid-user
</Location>
The problem is when i access it using
http://myserver.com/svn
it prompts for id/password after which i get the following error.
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /svn/ on this server.
Please advice as to what could be wrong.
regards
Himanshu Raina

Two possibilities:
a. if you want to see a list of repositories, you should change <Location /svn>
to <Location /svn/>.
b. to access one repository, you should use the url
http://myserver.com/svn/repository
hth,
Lieven

Hello Himanshu:
I have also used Subversion on FC6. I found that version 1.3.2 was included
when I installed the OS at the start. Your post did not mention whether you
installed v1.4.2 from source or from an RPM package. If it was from source,
you might be running into version conflicts -- where you are intending to
use v1.4.2 but because of how your PATH is set up (or where configuration
files are installed), the system is trying to use v1.3.2.
If it was from a package provided by an "unofficial" yum repository, then
there might be differences in how the package was created that is causing
difficulty.
You can check to see if you have a Subversion package with a command like
this:
$ rpm -qa | grep subversion
I hope that this might help you resolve your issues.
Erik
