problem on accessing each folder inside a repository

Hello,
I try to give access each folder inside my repository according to the
positions of people in project but I have a problem. With my configuration,
Only project manager can access the repository, developer can not.

My repository is in "D:/CAGATAY" and last lines of "httpd.conf" is given
below. I have a directory in "CAGATAY" repository which is called
"MYPROJECT". There are some directories in "MYPROJECT" such as "CODE" and
"TEST". Directory content is given below:

CAGATAY <----------- This is my repository
        MYPROJECT <-----My project directory
                CODE <----- Project subdirectories
                TEST <----- Project subdirectories

----------------------------------
<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNPath D:/CAGATAY
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repositories"
AuthUserFile passwd
AuthzSVNAccessFile svnaccessfile
Require valid-user
</Location>
--------------------------------

I created a svnaccessfile in " C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2"
directory as "passwd" file and its content is given below:

----------------------------------
[groups]
project_manager = john.fisher
developer = cagatay.catal
[/]
@project_manager = rw
[/MYPROJECT/CODE]
@developer = rw

--------------------------------

With this configuration, only project manager can access the repository.
But, cagatay.catal can not access to repository.
Is there any something wrong with this configuration?

What do you advice me?
Thanks alot.
Best regards,
Cagatay Catal

[groups]
developers = user1,user2,user3,user4
docs = user5,user6,user7
#to allow everyone read access
[/]
* = r
#allow all developers complete access
@developers = rw
#give the doc people write access to the docs folder
[/project/trunk/doc]
@docs = rw
