RE: 500 Internal Server Error

Looks like whatever our network engineer did was the problem. I changed AuthLDAPURL to a specific OU and it works now. I guess I can't search across the entire domain anymore. No problem though, since only users in our Information Solutions OU is allowed access to subversion.

Both methods have been returning 500 errors for the past hour or so. I get the error when I browse to my repository via a web browser. My apache error logs are not showing anything. I've restarted the server. I'm at a loss what to do next.

The apache log should at least confirm the 500 internal server error whenever it occurs, if not provide additional information. Please verify. If it doesn't, perhaps you're looking at the wrong log?

Could you also show the relevant parts of your apache configuration?

My access logs do show the 500 error, so I know that part is working.

Here is my svn configuration

<Location /svn/>
        DAV svn
        ModMimeUsePathInfo on
        SVNParentPath /var/svn
        SVNListParentPath On
        SVNAutoversioning On
        SVNReposName "Repository"
        AuthBasicProvider ldap
        AuthType Basic
        AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on
        AuthName "Subversion Login"
        AuthLDAPURL "ldap://mydomain/DC=domain,DC=com?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*)" NONE
        AuthLDAPBindDN "CN=svc-subversion,OU=Service Accounts,DC=domain,DC=com"
        AuthLDAPBindPassword svnpassword

        require valid-user
</Location>
CustomLog /var/log/svn_logfile "%t %u %{SVN-ACTION}e" env=SVN-ACTION

And the contents of subversion.conf in my conf.d directory:
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so

The only thing that has changed today that I'm aware of is our network admin transferred the domain role owner role from one server to another. However, I'm not using either server explicitly in my LDAP Url. I do wonder if it's related and need to test LDAP on my server.
