Can ssh ...but Can't svn+ssh
I can ssh into my remote server with:
ssh svn@www.mysite.com
or
ssh root@www.mysite.com
but, I can not do the below:
root#: svn list svn+ssh://www.mysite.com/home/svn/repository/myproject/
root@www.mysite.com's password:
bash: svnserve: command not found
subversion/libsvn_ra_svn/marshal.c:255: (apr_err=210002)
svn: Connection closed unexpectedly
what could be the problem ?
Does my svnserve.conf file need to be modified in some way ?
many thanks as am having troubles working with a remote repository
local repositories work like a charm :)

You need to determine why svnserve is not found. It looks from your
previous data that it *should* be found because it is installed in
/usr/local/bin and /usr/local/bin is in PATH. But it isn't in your
failing case. You will need to debug why.

Almost but not quite. That title looks like it should. But the
contents are more concerned about locking down ssh access. It should
work here too but it would prevent you using ssh for anything else on
the system. You could lock yourself out accidentally if you are not
careful.

Ok, that is a good clue :)
robert$ ssh svn@www.mysite.com 'type svnserve'
svn@www.mysite.com's password:
bash: type: svnserve: not found
does any of this have to do with:

many thanks for the help

That looks okay. It is in your path and it is found at that time by
your shell on the remote machine. That part looks good.

That does not make sense to me in conjuction with the first bit of
information. It complains that the program is not found but when we
try to look for it specifically it is found in /usr/local/bin just
fine. Those two pieces of information are in conflict. I don't know
how to reconcile those differences.
I am sorry but I don't know what to suggest at this point.
One last thing. Try this:
ssh svn@www.mysite.com 'type svnserve'

Re: Can ssh ...but Can't svn+ssh

I get:
robert$ echo 'type svnserve' | ssh -T svn@www.mysite.com
svn@www.mysite.com's password:
svnserve is /usr/local/bin/svnserve
On my remote server, if I get the same path using 'which svnserve'
Also:
I CAN check out from the repository with:
svn checkout svn://www.mysite.com/home/svn/repository/myproject/trunk .
But, I CAN NOT use svn+ssh
svn checkout svn+ssh://svn@www.mysite.com/home/svn/repository/
myproject/trunk .
With the above, I get:
bash: svnserve: command not found
subversion/libsvn_ra_svn/marshal.c:255: (apr_err=210002)
svn: Connection closed unexpectedly
many thanks as any help is appreciated

Sorry for the multiple posts...
I have also set up the ssh user-agent where entering:
ssh -i ~/ssh-key svn@www.mysite.com"
works as advertised

Also, when I get PATH with:
echo 'echo $PATH' | ssh -T svn@www.mysite.com
I get:
/bin:/usr/bin/svnserve:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/
local/sbin:/usr/prop/bin:/usr/prop/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/
local/java/bin

What is PATH when you log into the remote system?
Assuming standard command shell syntax here this should be useful.
echo 'echo $PATH' | ssh -T www.mysite.com

Best to avoid working as root. Usually working with svn does not
require root access. Working as root creates a trip hazard.

After looking at the error message I think I can say with authority
that the problem is that the "svnserve" command is not found.
Did check that it is installed on the remote system? Did you check
that it is installed someplace found on PATH on the remote system?
On my system I can verify that svnserve is found with the following:
echo 'type svnserve' | ssh -T svn.myexample.com
svnserve is /usr/bin/svnserve
> Does my svnserve.conf file need to be modified in some way ?
The error indicates that svnserve is not being run at all yet.
Changing the configuration file for a command that is not running
won't have any noticeable effect.
