Just curious about that too - i did some further tests here with the
latest svn trunk + httpd 2.4.29 and this config based on the "cfg" file
from the basic_tests.py (just removed the basic auth part and put the
lua call in):

<Location /svn-test-work/repositories>
  DAV svn
  SVNParentPath
"/home/tkrah/Development/src/subversion/subversion/tests/cmdline/svn-test-work/repositories"
  LuaHookCheckUserID /etc/apache2/auth.lua authcheck_hook early
  AuthzSVNAccessFile
"/home/tkrah/Development/src/subversion/subversion/tests/cmdline/svn-test-work/authz"
  Require valid-user
  SVNAdvertiseV2Protocol on
  SVNCacheRevProps off
</Location>

1. First test with this in authz file:

[/]
* = rw

Then error.log reads like that if i request "basic_tests-10/iota"
resource:

http://localhost:3691/svn-test-work/repositories/basic_tests-10/iota

So the access is granted in the first line to "-", after that authz_core
determines that there is yet no user authenticated and the call flow
reaches the configured lua auch hook via authz_core (1:1 from the httpd
docs
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/de/mod/mod_lua.html#luahookaccesschecker) which sets the user and after that authz_svn:info is happy to grant access to user 'foo' for that resource in the last line - fine so far.

Now the second test with that in authz file:

[/]
foo = rw

This should work the same (shouldn't it) - the user will be 'foo' - but
this is the debug output:

basic_tests-10:/iota, referer:
http://localhost:3691/svn-test-work/repositories/basic_tests-10/

After that the request is already answered with 403 and finished.

mod_authz_core.c had not yet even a chance to run to the authentication
phase and delegate that to the configured lua script.

Any ideas why that request with the user "-" is denied here instead of
processing the chain like above - meaning granted without knowing the
user yet and later on verified and granted with the correct user?

Ideas? Any hints where to put some breakpoints and post values here - i
am not that familiar with the svn source to get the interesting method
calls and values via some gdb help ;).

kind regards

Torsten
