I'm not familiar with this particular issue and the error message. But why does your authz file have multiple [groups] sections? I think that you should clean up the file and 1) Remove unnecessary entries. 2) Group all group definitions in a single [groups] section. -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team
