Question

I got a ubuntu server edition with subversion, apache2, openssh and need repositories for svn connection with/without any protocol (ssh, file:, http, https, etc).
I configured a repository directory

svnadmin create /path/to/repos/project

Made an import

svn import /path/to/import/directory svn+ssh://user@ipaddress/path/to/repos/projectFolder

Configured the apache2 and restarted the server

/etc/subversion/mod-avaliable/dva_svn.conf

<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /home/svn 
AuthType Basic
AuthName ”Your repository name”
AuthUserFile /etc/subversion/passwd
Require valid-user
</Location>

Already gave permition to the www-data

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /path/to/repos

However when trying to access the repository through browser I got 403 Forbidden access.
How should I proceed?

Thanks for the attention

Authentication is enabled in your configuration:

Require valid-user

In order to access your repository you must add a user:

htpasswd -m -c /etc/subversion/passwd PLS
