We have an apache installation with subversion modules (
http://webserver/ ).
All our repositories are in svn subfolder (
http://webserver/svn/RepositoryName )
If I checkout the url 'http://webserver/badname/RepositoryName', subversion
return '405 Method not allowed' instead of '404 Url not found'.

Unexpected HTTP status 405 Method Not Allowed on '/badname/RepositoryName'
Additional errors:
PROPFIND request on '/badname/RepositoryName' failed: 405 Method not allowed
