apache and TSVN not playing nicely together, part deux

thanks to the help of the people on this list, i had apache up and running,
no problem - version control, file sharing, etc. then, i did some stuff and
inadvertently screwed everything up. so, i decided (stupidly) to start
over. i uninstalled and reinstalled apache 2.0.6.3. upon installing, i got
an error that the port was busy, so i modified the line in httpd.conf from
Listen 80 to Listen 81, re-installed, and pointed my browser to
http://localhost:81/, and was pleasantly surprised that things seemed in
order (i also browsed remotely to my ip address and port and saw the same
page).

so, i went ahead and did the normal thing, uncommented out of httpd.conf

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so

and added at the end of the LoadModule section

LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so

copied 'mod_authz_svn.so' and 'mod_dav_svn.so' from \subverion\bin to
\Apache2\modules

finally, i added to the end of my httpd.conf file

<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNListParentPath on
SVNParentPath C:/D/SVNRepositories/
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repositories"
AuthUserFile passwd
#AuthzSVNAccessFile svnaccessfile
Require valid-user
</Location>

but when i try to start apache, i get: "The request operation has failed!"
i tried the same procedure with apache 2.2.8. i tried using tsvn 1.4.5 and
1.4.7. i'm confused because i'm pretty sure that this process worked
before. maybe i didn't successfully uninstall things before? is there
something stupid that i'm missing?

thanks.
