svn forbidden error

Hey all,

 I've configured subversion 1.8.10 from source with the serf configuration
option.

 Everything seemed to go smoothly. But when I try to do a checkout from my
repository I get this error:

[root@aozmpwslp004la ~]# svn co http://$(hostname
-i)/svn/localmedia/applications/elections
svn: E175013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL '
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/svn/localmedia/applications/elections'
svn: E175013: Access to '/svn/localmedia/applications/elections' forbidden


In my apache configuration I have the following entry:

<Directory /var/www/svn>
   Options +Indexes
   AllowOverride All
   Order allow,deny
   Allow From all
   AuthType Basic
   AuthName "Web SVN Browser"
   AuthUserFile /var/www/svn/svn-auth-file
   AuthzSVNAccessFile /var/www/svn/accessfile
   Require valid-user
  </Directory>

  Alias /svn /var/www/svn

And this is what I'm seeing in the apache error logs:

[Thu Jan 08 15:47:27 2015] [error] [client xx.xx.xx.xx] client denied by
server configuration: /var/www/svn/localmedia/applications

Can I get some advice on how I can get past this error?

Thanks
Tim

It was actually a Location directive I. Apache. I had to do an Allow from IP address in that block in order to solve the problem.

Thanks for you reply

The user as which the httpd process is running must have read and write
access to the physical files and directories in the repository.
