Hi I am new to subversion and have hit a problem - if anyone feels like helping it would be much appreciated.
I have set up subversion to run with apache. Versions: apache-2.2.4_2 subversion-1.4.4_1 I can connect remotely from a client to the server, using name|password combination so authentication appears to work fine but authorization is failing. This is a new repository as can be seen from the output of the svnlook. An initial import attempt from the client fails with the client reporting" RA Layer request failed"and "403 forbidden" error from the server. Clearly I have something wrong in my authorization set up. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have chosen to use an SVNParentPath configuration for multiple repositories to exist under the same "root" with all repositories sharing the same AuthzSVNAccessFile. I have made all repository paths owner:group www:www I have made no changes to the files created by the svnadmin create command. 1. Here are my entries in hhtp.conf ##### Modules include LoadModule dav_module libexec/apache22/mod_dav.so LoadModule dav_svn_module libexec/apache22/mod_dav_svn.so LoadModule authz_svn_module libexec/apache22/mod_authz_svn.so ##### Location entry: <Location /svnhome> DAV svn SVNParentPath /usr2/svnhome SVNListParentPath on # Access control Policy AuthzSVNAccessFile /usr/local/etc/apache22/Authz_svnhome # try anonymous access first, resort to authentication # if necessary Require valid-user AuthType Basic AuthName "Svn Repository" AuthUserFile /usr/local/etc/apache22/svn-auth-methusela_02 </Location> CustomLog /usr/local/etc/apache22/svn_logfile "%t %u %{SVN-ACTION}e" env=SVN-ACTION ##### 2.
