A possible solution to why the graceful did not work but a reboot did is
that on startup the apache init script reads /etc/conf.d/apache. That
file has the defines in it (-D). It is possible that after emerging
subversion the file was updated or you updated it to include -D SVN -D
DAV_FS. A gracefule restart will not reread this file but a stop/start
of apache will.

Hello everyone,
I am trying to setup a remotely accessible SVN repository for a
project I'm working on using Gentoo, Subversion and Apache.
I have followed this tutorial exactly...
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Apache2_with_subversion_SVN_and_DAV
The problem I'm having is that SVN never seems to be getting called no
matter what I do, you can see the results at
http://69.60.117.0/svn/
svnadmin from the commandline is working perfectly as you can clearly see
Here are my build flags for Apache2
[ebuild R ] net-www/apache-2.0.55-r1 USE="ssl -apache2 -debug
-doc -ldap -mpm-leader -mpm-peruser -mpm-prefork -mpm-threadpool
-mpm-worker -no-suexec -static-modules -threads" 0 kB
Here are my build flags for subversion
[ebuild R ] dev-util/subversion-1.3.0 USE="berkdb nls perl python
zlib -apache2* -bash-completion -emacs -java -minimal -nowebdav -ruby"
0 kB
Here is my /etc/apache2/modules.d/47_mod_dav_svn.conf file
<IfDefine SVN>
<IfModule !mod_dav_svn.c>
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
</IfModule>
<Location /svn/repos>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /var/svn/repos
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthUserFile /var/svn/conf/svnusers
Require valid-user
</Location>
<IfDefine SVN_AUTHZ>
<IfModule !mod_authz_svn.c>
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
</IfModule>
</IfDefine>
</IfDefine>
And there is nothing in my error_log when I do a restart...
sparky repos # /usr/sbin/apache2ctl graceful
sparky repos # tail /var/log/apache2/error_log
[Tue Mar 14 04:50:23 2006] [error] [client 68.6.107.189] script not

[Tue Mar 14 04:56:43 2006] [notice] Digest: done
[Tue Mar 14 04:56:43 2006] [notice] Apache configured -- resuming
normal operations
Also my httpd.conf looks fine as well....
# Extra Modules
#
# We Include extra .conf files from /etc/apache2/modules.d
# This is used to load things like PHP and mod_ssl.
#
Include /etc/apache2/modules.d/*.conf
I'm at a complete loss here, I have no idea anymore and I'm at wits
end, I just want to share my code, and this subversion setup has got
me all confused.
FYI the only reason you are able to see the repository is because I
created a symlink in public_html that points directly to the
repository, which seemed like a logical step, since removing that
symlink just causes a 404 error when trying to access the repository
or any project contained in it.
Anyways sorry for the verbosity of this post, but I wanted to detail
as much as I thought would be nessecary, if possible please help me
out here.
Thanks in advance.
