Question about installing Subversion

From: John Oliver <joliver_at_john-oliver.net>
Date: 2006-04-25 23:38:46 CEST

I just grabbed 1.3.1 and installed it. I think :-) I ./configure,
make, make install and can now use the "svn" command. My question is
about the Apache part... the INSTALL file says:

Try doing a network checkout from the repository:

          $ svn co http://localhost/svn/repos wc

      The most common reason this might fail is permission problems
      reading the repository db files.

However, it just gave info about setting up the Apache server. What and
where is this "wc" supposed to come from? What "repository db files"
might have permission problems?

Just for giggles, i tried it, and got:

[root_at_dev subversion-1.3.1]# svn co http://localhost/ wc
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/'
svn: PROPFIND of '/': 405 Method Not Allowed (http://localhost)

Nothing is logged to the error_log

My Apache config:

<VirtualHost 192.168.101.69:80>
        ServerName svn.domain.com
        DocumentRoot "/opt/www/svn"
        CustomLog "/var/log/httpd/svn-access.log" combined
        ErrorLog "/var/log/httpd/svn-error.log"
        <Location />
                DAV svn
                SVNPath /opt/www/svn
        </Location>
</VirtualHost>

I just need to get this thing to do whatever it does so I can hand it
off.
