mod_dav_svn / db4 problems ...can anyone help...
Hi,
I'm trying to setup http access to a Subversion repository. Everything
works fine using svnserve but access via http gives a
"Could not open the requested SVN filesystem" error. Looking in the
apache error logs I see:
[Thu Mar 04 12:13:45 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (20014)Error
string not specified yet: Bad database version: compiled with 4.2.52,
running against 4.1.25
[Thu Mar 04 12:13:45 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Could not fetch
resource information. [500, #0]
[Thu Mar 04 12:13:45 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Could not open the
requested SVN filesystem [500, #160000]
[Thu Mar 04 12:13:45 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (2)No such file or
directory: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem [500, #160000]
I assume the bad database version is the problem. I have db4-4.2.52-3
installed by rpm alongside db4-4.1.25-14 (which I can't remove due to
other dependencies). I'm running a fresh fedora-core system and have
subversion-1.0 installed using the rpms from David Summers.
Can anyone suggest a fix for this? How do I make mod_dav_svn (is this
correct?) use the correct db4 version?
Any help is much appreciated.
cheers,
Bryan

I get the same problem with a repository created fresh with
subversion-v1.0 and db4-4.2.52.
Where to look next?

If you were previously running Subversion and you updated to run using the
db-4.2.52 then I think you'll need to do a "svnadmin dump" of your
database with the old subversion svnadmin and a "svnadmin load" with the
new version. That's because of the switch from db4-4.1.25 to db4-4.2.52.
However, if that assumption is not the case then we'll have to look
further.
