Platform:
CentOS release 5.5 (Final)
SVN, version 1.4.2 (r22196)
Apache httpd.i386 2.2.3-43.el5.centos.3
I have a file called subversion.conf, /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf:
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
# Virtual path for websvn
Alias /wsvn /var/www/websvn/
<Directory /var/www/websvn>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
# Subversion configuration
<location /wsvn>
DAV svn
SVNListParentPath on
SVNParentPath /var/www/wsvn
AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/svn-acl-conf
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /etc/svn-auth-conf
Require valid-user
</Location>
In my svn-acl-conf I have the following:
[/]
joeblogs = rw
In my svn-auth-conf I have the following, and used # htpasswd -cm svn-auth-conf joeblogs:
joeblogs:$apr1$ellT3...$2spAjOJ2W1kFDieAoJJeg
In my directory /var/www/ I have have this:
4 drwxr-xr-x 4 apache apache 4096 Oct 1 20:56 wsvn
And it wsvn
4 drwxr-xr-x 7 apache apache 4096 Oct 1 20:56 APP
4 drwxr-xr-x 7 apache apache 4096 Oct 1 20:56 DEV
The problem is when I try and import a project using this:
svn import temp http://x.x.x.x/wsvn/DEV/dev-proj -m"Initial import"
svn: Server sent unexpected return value (500 Internal Server Error) in response to OPTIONS request for 'http://x.x.x.x/wsvn/DEV/dev-proj'
And when I try and browse in Firefox http://x.x.x.x/wsvn I get the following
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
However, if I comment out the following I can browse to that site without any problem, and I can see the repositories:
<location /wsvn>
# DAV svn
# SVNListParentPath on
# SVNParentPath /var/www/wsvn
# AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/svn-acl-conf
# AuthType Basic
# AuthUserFile /etc/svn-auth-conf
# Require valid-user
</Location>
How can I fix this problem?

It is a bug in SVN. You can not access root and see the list of repositories if you have an authz file.
It is true at least if you have SVNRoot in “/” as I have.
