Re: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem

Below is the full apache log for the request:

[Mon Jan 16 17:11:46 2006] [error] [client 81.130.207.88] Could not
fetch resource information. [500, #0]
[Mon Jan 16 17:11:46 2006] [error] [client 81.130.207.88] Could not open
the root of the repository [500, #22]
[Mon Jan 16 17:11:46 2006] [error] [client 81.130.207.88] Can't set
position pointer in file '/srv/svn/db/revs/3': Invalid argument [500, #22]

I have searched the mail archives, and the only reference I have found,
was where it was suggested that the permissions were incorrect. I have
set apache to run as root and set the permissions to the /srv/svn (where
my repository is stored) to 777.

I am using Apache version 2.2.0.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards

Jamie

Original Message
I am getting the following error when checking out from my repository 
using mod_dav_svn:
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
I am using apache2 with the following config:
#Subversion
LoadModule dav_svn_module     modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module   modules/mod_authz_svn.so
<Location /svn>
  DAV svn
  SVNParentPath /srv/svn
  AuthType Basic
  AuthName "Subversion repository"
  AuthUserFile "/usr/share/apache2/etc/svn-auth-file"
  Require valid-user
</Location>
My svn repository is set up in /srv/svn and the permissions are set up 
as 777 (For testing, I will restrict them once I get this working).
I have a project under trunk/eccgroup but when I check out using svn co 
http://www.ecommerce-consultancy.co.uk/trunk/eccgroup I get the 
following error:
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
My apache error_log file lists the following:
[Mon Jan 16 01:23:04 2006] [error] [client 81.130.207.88] Could not 
fetch resource information.  [500, #0]
[Mon Jan 16 01:23:04 2006] [error] [client 81.130.207.88] Could not open 
the requested SVN filesystem  [500, #2]

[Mon Jan 16 01:29:52 2006] [error] [client 81.130.207.88] 
(20014)Internal error: Can't open file '/srv/svn/trunk/format': No such 
file or directory
I can confirm that there is no directory under /srv/svn called trunk, 
but I'm not sure that there should be, or is my repository set up 
incorrectly?
I am running subversion 1.3.0 (r17949).
The check out works fine when I use svn co file:///srv/svn/trunk/eccgroup
Any help would be much appreciated.
