(13)Permission Denied: Berkley DB Error

[rb...@connected.com]

Hi,

I run svn 0.31 on RedHat9 with access via apache 2.0.47.

In the apache error log I am seeing messages stating the following:
-----
Could not open file system at /home/svn/repos
(13)Permission Denied: Berkley DB Error while opening environment for file
system /home/svn/repos/db:
-----

I found a little info in the archive about this, but nothing about how to
fix it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ryan

Your repository permissions are incorrect, please check, what is the
user/group in which apache is running, and check that this user has
read/write access to your repository, also for the log files.

If you have mixed file://, svn:// and http:// access methods, and
your umask and/or groups settings are not correct, this will also
lead you to misery, pain and troubles.

Also read this chapter of SVN book which concerns that
topic (or even better, read the whole book! =):
