The way I usually get around my headaches is to chmod -R 777 the subversion root directory. I have not found any fallbacks to a 777 setting, because you are using either a AuthFile or AuthzSVNAccessFile, which designates proper permissions. (Please, anyone correct me if I am wrong on this.) > 2. My AuthzSVNAccessFile > AuthzSVNAccessFile /usr/local/etc/apache22/Authz_svnhome > [/] > * = r > [/usr2/svnhome] > * =r > [project_meth: /usr2/svnhome/project_meth] > david = rw > test = r I am going to assume `/usr/svnhome` is the directory where you have the root SVN directory. If I am right, your Authz file is wrong. Here's how it works: Say my SVN root is in /usr/home/svn. When I create the Authz file, and I use [/], the Authz file sees /usr/home/svn as /. Meaning, it doesn't see anything above it. (Think jail). That said, the second directory entry in you Authz file "[/usr2/svnhome]", unless it is a project inside your SVN, has to change. Better explained?: if you have this: http://your.host.com/svn/usr2/svnhome , your file is NOT wrong... If /usr2/svnhome is where your SVN root is, it IS wrong. If I have completely misunderstood your file, and what you were aiming to accomplish, I appologize -- but I remember this is how I misunderstood it when I started using SVN. I hope this helps.
