Hello,
I've just installed Fedora Core 3 and I'm trying to evaluate SubVersion as
a configuration control tool. There is a problem accessing the repository
with http.
Please note that I'm working with single PC here.
I created a user "svn" and as that user I created repository
/home/svn/svn_repos.
I'm able to check out files from the repository like this:
svn co file:///home/svn/svn_repos/trunk ./trunk
But this one fails:
svn co http://localhost/repos/trunk ./trunk
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/repos/trunk'
svn:
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
ps shows that Apache is started as "root" but then changed to "svn". This
is what is supposed to happen because of configuration in httpd.conf.

# If you wish httpd to run as a different user or group, you must run
# httpd as root initially and it will switch.
#
# User/Group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run httpd as.
# . On SCO (ODT 3) use "User nouser" and "Group nogroup".
# . On HPUX you may not be able to use shared memory as nobody, and the
# suggested workaround is to create a user www and use that user.
# NOTE that some kernels refuse to setgid(Group) or semctl(IPC_SET)
# when the value of (unsigned)Group is above 60000;
# don't use Group #-1 on these systems!

I can't understand with permission is missing. I've put "777" for each
file under /home/svn/svn_repos. Also svn home directory has "777"
permissions.
Any help available?
Thanks,
Jussi
