RE: New Installation Authentication Problem

It would be very helpful to see the applicable section from your apache
configuration file.

Hey Ryan -

Leave it to me to forget the obvious (I don't do as much with Apache as I'd
like). These messages were in the access_log file:

And from error_log:
[Sun Jun 18 19:00:27 2006] [error] [client 172.16.1.102] Could not fetch
resource information. [403, #0] [Sun Jun 18 19:00:27 2006] [error] [client

[403, #190001]

172.16.1.102] (2)No such file or directory: The URI does not contain the
name of a repository.
[403, #190001]

As best I can recall, here's how I started this off:
1. Created /home/svn/
2. Created a new repository named "se" in /home/svn/ 3. Imported files
into a new repository within "se" named "syndicationmodule"

I've tried to access http://servername/svn/se and
http://servername/svn/se/syndicationmodule with the same result: the error.
Unfortunately, I'm not entirely sure exactly how I created these
repositories. Can I dump my existing repositories by simply deleting the
/home/svn/se/ directory?

Thanks for your help.
