SVN access issue

Hi,

My SVN repos has module called sbm , I am having 2 groups called sbm-dev and
sbm-qa. I want
to give access to this groups as follow sbm-dev can access entire sbm module
but sbm-qa can access only sbm/test module. For that contents of authz file
as follow :

[/]
@sbm-dev = rw

[groups]
sbm-dev=dev1,dev2
sbm-qa=qa1,qa2

[/sbm/test]
@sbm-qa = rw


But when qa1 user tries to acess the /sbm/test module I am getting following
error :
Error: PROPFIND request failed on '/swa/sbmrepos/trunk/sbm/test/bin'  
Error: PROPFIND of '/swa/sbmrepos/trunk/sbm/test/bin': 403 Forbidden
(http://venus)  

where /swa is name of the module defined in apache and rest is the path.
Any help to resolve the issue. sbm-dev group is able to access the module
without any error.

Regards,
Chetan

yes you have to. As stated in the documentation [1] permissions are
inherited from parent to child directories. So unless you give the group
sbm-qa access to the whohle sbmrepos you have to define the access for
every directory.

Another approach could be to redefine your repository structure. If sbm
is module, why not have a trunk, branches, and tags branch in the module?

root
- sbmrepos
--dbm
---branches
---tags
---trunk
--othermodule
---branches
---tags
---trunk
...

Don't know if this applies to your setup, but this is a common way to
handle the structure.

Thanks Patrick,  it worked I had to give the path as

[/sbmrepos/trunk/sbm/test]
@sbm-qa = rw

instead of

[/sbm/test]
@sbm-qa = rw

but then one more question then do I need to have entry for tags and 
branches also ?
as
[/sbmrepos/tags/sbm/test]
@sbm-qa = rw
[/sbmrepos/branches/sbm/test]
@sbm-qa = rw

Chetan

try define the full path within the repository. If you have the structure:

root of repository
-trunk
--sbm
---test

you have to specify the path in the autz file as

[/trunk/sbm/test]
...

Here is what I would try:
 
[groups]
sbm-dev=dev1,dev2
sbm-qa=qa1,qa2

[/sbm/test]
@sbm-qa = rw
@sbm-dev = rw

[/]
@sbm-dev = rw

Regards
Christophe
