Re: SVN commit does nothing

Subversion 1.8 works with httpd 2.2. Something (a module, a proxy, a
load balancer) is interfering with POST requests. The best solution is
to identify what is interfering with POST and fix it, but if you cannot
do that you are advised to run 1.8 with "SVNAdvertiseV2Protocol off"
rather than 1.6. 1.6 has lower performance, more bugs, and is no longer
supported.
