I did indeed read these instructions, and followed them exactly,
except that my SVN repository root is at /var/www/svn .
(This is the suggested root in /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf
under Fedora-8.)
I cannot even checkout with http on the same computer:
=========================================
[tim_at_alfred svn]$ svn checkout http://localhost/svn/Maths/Penrose Penrose
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/Maths/Penrose'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/Maths/Penrose': 405 Method Not Allowed
(http://localhost)
=========================================
though I have no problem with svnserve, eg
=========================================
[tim_at_alfred tmp]$ svn checkout svn://localhost/var/www/svn/Maths/Penrose
Penrose
A Penrose/trunk
A Penrose/trunk/penrose.ins
A Penrose/trunk/penrose.dtx
A Penrose/trunk/README
A Penrose/brances
A Penrose/tags
Checked out revision 1.
=========================================
I guess it is something to do with my httpd settings,
though httpd works perfectly as a web-server.
