Apache is failing to read the file /home/svn/sites/format which should
contain a single line consisting of the digit "1". You say the
permissions are correct so it's not immediately obvious what's causing
the problem. You may have to debug it, something like

$ gdb /path/to/httpd
(gdb) b main
(gdb) r -X
Breakpoint main
(gdb) b svn_io_read_version_file
(gdb) c
(gdb) # Use some client to access the repository
Breakpoint svn_io_read_version_file
(gdb) p path
(gdb) # s or n or p or whatever

and find out what goes wrong.
