Re: Need subversion help

["Dave Peters" <user=190@nabble.blu.org>]

 All, 

Still have problem and need help. I did try many way 
and google and was unable to solve it. 

1. I tried to import and got the permission denied 
error: 
Can't create directory 
/svntest/db/transactions/0-1.txn  : Permission denied. 
The permission on svntest folder is set as 777 and 
still get the error. 

2. Web access I edited httpd.conf 
<Location /svntest> 
        DAV svn 
        SVNPath /svntest/ 
</Location> 

It did work http://localhost/svntest and it showed: 
Revision 0:/ 
Powered by Subversion version 1.4.2 (r22196) 
However, I add AuthType to http.conf and it kept 
asking username and password. I am sure the username 
and password is correct, but still keep asking. 
All,

<Location /svntest> 
DAV svn 
SVNPath /svntest/ 
AuthType Basic 
AuthName "Subversion repository" 
AuthUserFile /svntest/conf/svnserve.conf 
Require valid-user 
</Location> 

3. On svntest/conf/svnserve.conf 
anon-access = read 
auth-access = write 
password-db = /svntest/conf/passwd 
realm = Repository 

4. I also try this and got error too: 
svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /svntest 
svn co svn://localhost/svntest 
svn add test-file 
svn: '.' is not a working copy 
svn: Can't open file '.svn/entries': No such file or 
directory 


Any help is appreciated. 

Thanks.
