can't get subversion/Apache2 to work properly
in [Suse]
|
From: jamesromeongmail.com on 8 Apr 2008 09:56 I have been trying to get subversion to work using apache2 in 10.3 by following the instructions in /usr/share/doc/packages/subversion/README.SuSE I also installed viewvc The Web pages for both of these seem to work properly, but when I get to the last step (loading the repository) I always get a PROPFIND error: PROPFIND of '/repos/tekplot': 301 Moved Permanently (https:// 192.168.1.13) I googles this, and it talks about having the repo under the doc root as being bad, but I do not think I am doing this, so I an quite stuck. I even moved the repository to another disk partition. Here is my subversion.conf file: <IfModule mod_dav_svn.c> ## ## project related HTML files ## <IfModule mod_alias.c> ## Alias /repos /local/svn/html Alias /repos /local/svn/repos </IfModule> <Directory /local/svn/repos> Options +Indexes +Multiviews -FollowSymLinks IndexOptions FancyIndexing \ ScanHTMLTitles \ NameWidth=* \ DescriptionWidth=* \ SuppressLastModified \ SuppressSize order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> <Location /repos/tekplot> DAV svn SVNPath /local/svn/repos/tekplot # Require SSL connection for password protection.

You might consider this option as it's as easy as installing with Yast and then open up a web browser as root and point your browser to http://localhost/usvn to get started. Much less complificated (my word) than the method you are trying... Remember to paste a copy of the generated text in step #5 (or was it 6 ?) as instructed during install. Then do 'rcapche2 restart' in a root terminal (su) and then on the final step of install click the connect to USVN button and you're there. Click the 'Admin' tab to start using this php frontend and enjoy. P.S. I don't see any problems with their license which is open source but not GPL !!! Read the license agreement as you must anyway in order to proceed with the setup... This is my opinion though you may disagree..

But when I go to the usvn page, it says that mod-rewrite is not started and I should not attempt the install. rewrite is in /etc/sysconfig/apache2 in the APACHE_MODULES line. And I restarted apache2. The usvn site also says you need the mod_svn enabled. There is no svn module. There are dav, and dav_svn. Should I turn off subversion.conf and viewvc.conf also? I tried that. No change. So I am still stuck. Thanks, Jim

I'd rather use Yast modules when they are available. That way I'm less likely to really screw something up if I have a case of 'brain fade'... So using Yast's 'http' module (->Network Services->HTTP Server) make sure that 'dav' , 'dav_fs' & 'rewrite' are 'ENABLED'. This will ensure that you have your apache module config o.k. Next you want to go to Yast->System ->System Services and check that 'svnserve' is ENABLED... Now use your browser to start the 'USVN' install. Should work.
