403 Forbidden only with Client
I have setup an SVN Server through Apache 2. I can access the
repository fine with a web browser. However, when I try to use the
command line, TortiseSVN or Subclipse I get 403 Forbidden. Here is my
exact error :
svn: PROPFIND of 'the/repos': 403 Forbidden (http://thedomain.com/the/repos)
I can't understand why I am able to view the repository just fine in
the web browser, but the clients error out.
Please help.

Can you send your apache.conf when you had the problem?
Just part where you define the repository location.
Thanks

I was able to get it to work by creating a virtual host for the repository.

To get your response to go to the mailing list, you must use your
mail program's "reply to all" feature, not the "reply" feature you
may be used to.
Sorry that suggestion didn't work out for you; then I don't know what
it could be, and I'll let someone else on the list give it a shot.

To respond to someone else's suggestion: if it works fine in a web
browser, then there cannot be a problem with SVNPath vs. SVNParentPath.
The difference between a web browser and the svn client is that a web
browser only sends GET requests whereas the svn client uses PROPFIND
requests. Are you going through a proxy? Many proxies don't know
about PROPFIND, REPORT and the other WebDAV methods svn needs to use.
You must configure the proxy to handle these methods as well.
Alternately, use HTTPS; since the proxy cannot read the HTTPS stream
because it is encrypted, it must pass all of it through unaltered.

Check the apache config. Is it SVNParentPath or SVNPath ?

Have you had a look at the network traffic with something like Ethereal to
see where the two processes are differing?

I have setup an SVN Server through Apache 2. I can access the
repository fine with a web browser. However, when I try to use the
command line, TortiseSVN or Subclipse I get 403 Forbidden. Here is my
exact error :
svn: PROPFIND of 'the/repos': 403 Forbidden (http://thedomain.com/the/repos)
I can't understand why I am able to view the repository just fine in
the web browser, but the clients error out.
Please help.
