Re: svn doesn't follow HTTP 301

Ah, here's the thing: I was specifying a DocumentRoot for the particular
VirtualHost in question in Apache. Removing that and my checkouts work fine.

 Although I can serve a single repository from the root of a domain, I
 can't seem to be able to server multiple repositories in separate
 directories because of 1) the way svn communicates to the server, and
 2) the way svn simply stops on any error.
 
 I have a repository at /usr/local/svn/java on Linux. I have Apache
 configured something like this:
 
   Location /
     Dav svn
     SVNParentPath /usr/local/svn
   /Location
 
 Then from Win2000 I do this:
 
 svn co http://svn.example.com/java/ java
 
 1) The first thing that is sent from svn to the server is
 
 PROPFIND /java HTTP/1.1
 
 (Shouldn't this be /java/ ?)
 
 2) Apache sends back 301 Moved Permanently specifying
 http://svn.example.com/java/ as the correct location.
 
 3) svn then sends to the server:
 
 PROPFIND / HTTP/1.1
 
 (Shouldn't this likewise be /java/ ?)
 
 4) As the root of svn.example.com isn't a repository and is not setup
 for PROPFIND to work, Apache sends back 403 Forbidden.
 
 5) svn displays:
 svn: RA layer request failed
 svn: PROPFIND of /: 403 Forbidden
 
 Any ideas?
