Re: Unknown DAV provider

Hi again,

Finally it works, the problem was that I had compiled apache against a
different version of the Berkeley DB than the svn code. When I compiled
them both with the same version everything went smoothly.

By the way, the latest version of apache doesn't compile with the Berkeley
DB version 4.1. Just for your knowledge.

Thanks for all of your help
