I am unable to do any commits to my repository over HTTP/WebDav. Here's the recreation routine:
~$ svnadmin create /data/repository/myproject
~$ chown -R nobody:nobody /data/repository/myproject
~$ svn checkout http://www.mydomain.com/repository/myproject
Checked out revision 0.
~$ echo "testfile" > myproject/testfile.txt
~$ svn add myproject/testfile.txt
A myproject/testfile.txt
~$ svn commit myproject -m "this never works"
Adding myproject/testfile.txt
Transmitting file data .svn: RA layer request failed
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: PUT of /repository/myproject/!svn/wrk/b73760d5-d2c4-0310-92a9-ab46eda3b27f/testfile.txt: 403 Forbidden (http://www.mydomain.com)
this corresponds to an entry in the error error_log as follows:
[error] [client 66.161.158.50] client denied by server configuration: /path/to/my/document/root/repository
and the access_log:

What gives? Here is the relevant excerpt from httpd.conf
<VirtualHost 12.23.34.45:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /path/to/my/document/root
ServerName mydomain.com
ServerAlias www.mydomain.com
<Location /repository>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /data/repository
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
Notice that the error log shows that apache is trying to access the repository folder under the document root, but of course, it is not there - why does commit try to access the repository in the document root whereas the checkout correctly looks to the repository parent folder pointed to by SVNParentPath? It has to be something obvious because people have done this before right?
