"OPTIONS request failed" on commit

Hi,

We temporarily setup svnserve for our new Subversion server (and it works :-),
and now are trying to setup use through Apache. We have it partially working
from remote (e.g. authentication, authorization, svn co, browser traversing),
but cannot commit.

Using:
svn, version 1.1.4 (r13838)
   compiled Apr 5 2005, 05:18:28

Apache/2.0.53

We've been pulling our hair out Googling and searching this list's archives etc.
(every thread starts to answer something, but then ends :-( I know there is
some config error on our part. So far we have not determined what it is!

Our best guess so far is there is/are another thing to config in httpd.conf, or
something with our firewall/forwarding. For starters, we understand that the
web-dav OPTIONS command is not working, but not sure how to get
further/troubleshoot and diagnose why.

The core issue to solve is this error:

$ svn commit -m "the msg"
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: OPTIONS request failed on '/svn/mndoc'
svn: The OPTIONS request returned invalid XML in the response: XML parse error
at line 1: no element found (/svn/mndoc)

This is the section added to http.conf
<IfModule mod_dav_svn.c>
    <Location /svn>
        DAV svn
        SVNParentPath /home/subversion/repos

        #access control policy
        AuthzSVNAccessFile /home/subversion/conf/authorization-apache

        #how to authenticate
        AuthType Basic
        AuthName "Subversion Repository"
        AuthUserFile /home/subversion/conf/authentication-apache

        #only authenticated users can access
        Require valid-user
    </Location>
</IfModule>

Anyone have advice for us please?!
