Hi again....
Well... after some more testing I ended up on the same problem...
again...
As an update to my previous message...
svn ls http://url.to.svn/repos/groupX IS working...
The real problem is that I would like to have the list of repositories
available in TortoiseSVN when issuing the svn list on the "root"
repository... otherwise there is no "nice" way to know what
repositories are available....
So, yes, the SVNListParentPath on is nice in a browser - this just
lists the files in the "parent" folder...
So, basically, the problem is the same - how to setup a FUNCTIONING
<Location>/<Directory> setup in Apache without having to define the
<Location> directive for each and every (new) repository under the
"virtual root" repository???
if I setup something like this
<LocationMatch "^/repos$">
SVNPath /mnt/svn/root
</LocationMatch>
<LocationMatch "^/repos/.+">
SVNParentPath /mnt/svn/root (or /mnt/svn becaouse of links)
</LocationMatch>
or anything with regular expression or any other form of "wildchars"
the mod_dav_svn is throwing errors as "not found" because uses EXACT
STRING specified in Location/LocationMatch!
For example:
URL /repos/.+/repos/!svn/bc/20/PM: No such file or directory
So, the Apache setup should be such that there is no "special
characters" in the Location directive.... ok, then I tried with
Rewrite and Redirect to "separate" the requests for the "root"
repository to get the "repository list" and access to the real
repositories but... again... no fun! :(
Any suggestions/ideas are *very* welcome...
Regards,
Mculibrk
