Re: file vs http problems

So i figured out what is causing this but i would like to understand
this more. It looks like i assumed something about apache that is not
so.

httpd.conf:

DocumentRoot "/repository"
<Location "/mike">
        DAV svn
        SVNPath /repository/mike
</Location>

Notice that my repository is in the document root. I thought this was
cool since directory indexing would give me the list the repsoitories
and i could browse them all without any effort on my part to create an
index. This part worked fine.

Unfortunatly because of this when svn does 'PROPFIND /mike' apache says
'301'. Is apache looking in '/repository/mike' before using the
information in the <Location> block? Can i adjust these priorities?

when i move the document root elsewhere there are no problems accessing
the repository. I would still like to get my free indexing but this is
of course an easily avoidable problem.

It seems like it might be good to recommend that people not put
repositories in their document root.
