mod_dav_svn for iSeries

Greetings,

I'm looking for any help regarding mod_dav_svn on the IBM iSeries machines,
running OS V5R4.

I'm trying to configure apache 2.0.58 with mod_dav_svn from SoftLanding,
however, having trouble with it.

I'm loading the following modules.

# Configuration originally created by Create HTTP Server wizard on Wed Jul
11 14:14:10 CDT 2007
#LoadModule dav_module /QSYS.LIB/QHTTPSVR.LIB/QZSRDAV.SRVPGM
LoadModule dav_module /QSYS.LIB/SUBVERSION.LIB/MOD_DAV.SRVPGM
LoadModule dav_svn_module /QSYS.LIB/SUBVERISON.LIB/MOD_DAVSVN.SRVPGM

and have a repository configured in the following manner.

<Location /devsrc>
   DAV svn
   SVNParentPath /Subversion/repositories/devsource
   AuthType Basic
   AuthName "Subversion Repository"
   PasswdFile %%SYSTEM%%
   Order deny,allow
   Require valid-user
</Location>

The problem is, apache won't start unless I comment out the DAV directive.
Also, the SVNParentPath directive always claims to be "Not Recognized" via
the Display Configuration option the GUI admin.

Anyone have any experience with trying to setup SVN on the iSeries?

Thanks!

If you are on V5R3, you need to make sure you have the right version
downloaded and the required PTF's.

I do not work with OS/400 anymore so I cannot really offer much more help.

Ok, thanks for the info.

Unfortunately, I still have the same problem.

Are there any logs I might be able to take a look at.  The apache logs
never get generated, so nothing in the error_log.

I was mistaken, it is V5R3, not R4,  I didn't install the app, our iSeries
admin did, is there a way for me to check the version of svn installed?

Thanks for the help!!

There is a separate download for V5R4, make sure you use that one.
Also, you need to use the IBM version of MOD_DAV (QZSRDAV.SRVPGM) not
the special Subversion one.  I know the docs and examples say all this
because I wrote those docs when I used to work at SoftLanding.  So
just restore the commented out line, and get rid of the first one
following it.  You still need the MOD_DAVSVN line.

This is normal and expected.  IBM's GUI is not smart enough to handle
Apache modules that did not come from IBM.
