I created my repository as fsfs using "svnadmin create --fs-type=fsfs ${repoName}" and I am able to access my repository using svn://server/repository. Then I installed mod_dav_svn-1.6.1-1.i386.rpm on apache 2.0.59 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and provided following configuration. /repos/General is the path where my repository is created and I am trying to access throught http://server/svn/General/Test

        Permission to all the directories files is given using chmod -R
        777 /repos so that apache could read of the files.
        
        Any other ideas. This thing is preventing us upgrading to SVN
        1.6.1

1 - Please try to keep at least the important parts of a thread in each
message. I for one can't keep entire threads in my mail client so being
able to remind myself of the gist of a thread in one message is helpful.
I am lucky today that your response came before I cleaned out
yesterday's messages.

2 - It just occurred to me that this was something I've seen before -
try to put a trailing slash on your <Location > directive. Here is a
copy of my configuration that works:

            <Location /utilities/>
              DAV svn
              SVNParentPath /srv/svn/repositories/Utilities/
              SVNListParentPath on
              AuthName "Utilities"
              include /srv/svn/engineering_auth
            </Location>
        

Regards,
Frank
