Re: which users and homedirs for svn+ssh?

2011-06-28 Thread David Bonner
Hi Christian, I've used both password-based auth as well as an rsa key (both as the apache user) to ssh to the svn server. For the rsa key, I had to explicitly call out the identity file when I put it under $SITE/data, even if I reset $HOME to point there. I also did an svn ls with that svn+ssh

Hi Dave, Did you manually copy things into the $SITE/data/.ssh directory, or go through the Settings - SSH page to upload or create it? It should be the latter. The apache user part is still strange. Just to verify, did you try including the username in the URL for the repository? Christian --

Hi Christian, I've been trying all this as the apache user from a shell, just to make sure that a process running as the apache user can successfully ssh to my subversion server, and rule that out as an issue. That being said, I just went and blew the site away, cleared everything out of

Hi Dave, Assuming that your install is fairly recent, or you've performed the recommended manual update instructions from rb-site, the directory containing .ssh and .subversion should be the data directory under your site directory. It should be SSHing as the username/password you provide, which

Hi David, it's actually sounding like the server doesn't allow password-based auth. Can you check this? Do you use an SSH key to access it from your own box? What you could do (and this is safer as well) is to generate an SSH key for Review Board (Settings - SSH) and then add the public key on

Hi, all, I'm trying to get rb up and running against an svn server that only exposes an svn+ssh port. From what I've read, this should work, but I'm getting what some googling shows to be a common error: A repository was not found at the specified path. I _think_ that what happens is the rb
