One step at a time...
Did you setup Apache and setup Apache to checkout from Subversion via
the dav_svn_module module? If not, you cannot use the http://
protocol. Instead, you need to svn:// protocol, but only if you
started "svnserve".
If you did setup the "svnserve" process (which it looks like since you
were able to do a checkout) did you configure the svnserve.conf file?
This file is located under the "conf" directory inside your
repository. If you don't want any authorization (i.e. allow anonymous
commits), you need to modify the following two lines:
# anon-access = read
# auth-access = write
To this:
anon-access = write
auth-access = write
If you want to prevent anonymous commits, you need to leave these two
lines alone, and modify this line:
# password-db = passwd
To this:
password-db = passwd
Then, you need to edit the "passwd" file which is in the same
directory as the svnserve.conf file, and setup the user accounts. The
passwd file tells you how to do this.
If you don't want just anyone checking out your files, then you need
to modify these two lines in svnserve.conf:
# anon-access = read
# auth-access = write
to:
anon-access = none
auth-access = write
If you have never used or setup Subversion before, take a quick look
at the Subversion book at http://svnbook.com, and take a good look at
Chapter #6 on Server Configuration.
