I've done a bit more digging, but not got anywhere.

Looking at the PROPPATCH error above, its clear that there is a missing
trailing slash from /svn/repos at the start.  To try to fix this I
changed the location block to be:

<Location /svn/repos/>

However, svn co now complains:

svn: Server sent unexpected return value (405 Method Not Allowed) in
response to PROPFIND request for '/svn/repos

It seems that the client (or mod_dav_svn) is stripping off this trailing
slash making the repository undiscoverable.

There are posts about a similar bug in 1.5.1, but I'm using 1.6.5 so I
don't think its related.

Any ideas?

Matthew
