Could not open the requested SVN filesystem, errcode 160000
Hi!
I'm trying to get svn working on a RHEL-based server. I've installed the
rpm's from http://people.redhat.com/jorton/Taroon-svn/ and everything
else works just fine, but I can't get the apache "front end" working.
If I try
svn co http://server/repos/
from the command line, I get
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/repos'
svn: PROPFIND of '/repos': 500 Internal Server Error (http://server)
Pointing a web browser to http://server/repos results in
<D:error>
<C:error/>
<m:human-readable errcode="160000">
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
</m:human-readable>
</D:error>
I guess it could be something with the Apache configuration. I'm just
not sure what.
/etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf looks like this:
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
<Location /repos>
DAV svn
SVNPath /var/local/svn
</Location>
I'm guessing that something in httpd.conf could cause this, but I'm not
sure what it could be.
While debugging, I noticed that /usr/sbin/httpd is linked against
/lib/libdb-4.0.so while all the svn binaries are linked against both
libdb-4.0.so and libdb-4.1.so. Could this have something to do with it?
I'm pretty much clueless on what I should try next. Any ideas, anyone?

Check the ownership of the repository... all its files (and the
directory) must be writable by the user accessing them. In this case,
the user your web server runs under (apache:apache is the default on
RHEL)
