URL problem with Subversion 1.4.3

[Matt Connolly <ma...@soundevolution.com.au>]

I'm hoping someone might be able to help me:

I've just downloaded and installed 'subversion-1.4.3' (Mac OS X) and  
successfully built it with the SWIG bindings for using Trac. This all  
seems fine. Trac works. SVN works with XCode.

But, svn seems that it is not accepting a URL that starts with "http://"

It works with "file:///path/to/repos" and "svn://server.com/path/to/ 
repos" but not "http://server.com/path/to/repos"


Is this correct?

Thanks,
Matt

you need to setup mod_dav_svn on server.com
see chapter 6 of the book

What do you mean, it's not accepting http URLs? What error message do  
you get?

There are two possible problems:

1) Your server does not speak http, therefore no clients can access  
it over that protocol.

2) Your client does not speak http, therefore your client cannot  
access any http Subversion server.

To fix 1), set up Apache 2 with mod_dav_svn as Matt said. This is  
described in depth in the book at http://svnbook.org/

To fix 2), build your client with the neon library. If you don't have  
it already, it's provided in the subversion-deps archive.


Shameless plug: An easy way to install Subversion on Mac OS X, by the  
way, is to use MacPorts. After you have the core MacPorts system  
installed, all you have to do to get the Subversion client is type  
"sudo port selfupdate" and then "sudo port install subversion" in the  
terminal. If you want to run an Apache 2 server with mod_dav_svn, you  
can instead "sudo port install subversion +mod_dav_svn". All  
dependencies get automatically downloaded and installed for you.
