problem with Apache after loading svn 1.1.0RC3

[Danny Shevitz <sh...@lanl.gov>]

Howdy, I'm a new user and think SVN is great!

For no good reason, I upgraded to SVN 1.1.0rc3. I am running Apache 2.0.50 
and Win2K sp4.

When I install SVN, if I leave the third option about installing and 
configuring the apache modules checked, then the apache service stops and 
does not restart. What's worse, is that I am unable to restart it manually. 
I don't know what's going on, but I have to reinstall the apache server.

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

thanks,
Danny

It's hard to tell without more info.  Have you looked at httpd's
error.log?

If that is empty, it might be a problem with your configuration file.
You can check for problems by starting apache from the command line
rather that trying to start the service - it will usually spew out 
something before it croaks.

Switch to whatever directory you installed Apache to - 
"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2" by default.  Then run
bin\apache2.exe and see what it says.

Here are some possibilities to look for:
  * Missing or conflicting version of libdb4X.dll in the apache bin or
    modules directory.
  * svn can't find libapriconv.dll (Don't know if this matters for
    apache)
  * Modules loaded in the wrong order in httpd.conf (ex mod_dav.dll must
    be loaded before mod_dav_svn.dll)

Good luck!

Try comparing the httpd.conf file before and after installing 
Subversion.   It's likely that you will just need to replace that file 
to rescue Apache, and closer inspection of the changes may show you 
what module is causing problems.

So I guess you tested it :)
