error 405 - no hint why

Hi all,

i've created repository inside c:\svn\reposit (that is defined as parent 
path in apache config),
cd c:\svn\reposit
svnadmin create websites

Something like this used to work a week ago. Now it doesn't:
I have password protection for some operations, but not for PROPFIND, so it 
SHOULD work (anyway, i know the password and I'd enter it if needed)...

When I try to import new folder into this empty repository, I get:

Error: PROPFIND request failed on '/websites'
Error: PROPFIND of '/websites': 405 Method Not Allowed 
(http://192.168.224.3:8080)

Both comps are in the same workgroup, OS is Windows 2003

http://192.168.224.3:8080 link works ok in browser

What could cause such error?? I'm in despair!

Thanks.
Alexander.

A "405 Method Not Allowed" error can mean that a directory you're willing to
create during the import already exists in the repository.

Alternatively it might mean that you're using a proxy server which doesn't
support custom WebDAV methods like PROPFIND.

Anyway, as Erik already suggested, more info from your side is needed.

- What changed? (update of apache? update of authz file? update of Subversion?)
- What OS?
- What's in the error_log?
- Which authz method are you using?

IOW: we need more info about what you're looking at. Unfortunately, we
can't help you if you don't exactly tell us what happens before, while
and after you see this error, what your config is, etc.

bye,

Erik.
