The first attempt after that was still not successful, but maybe it took
a few seconds to propagate or something. So I'd say we close this issue.

I'd be curious what that LDAP change was, just to ensure it could be
related. (eg. adding commit privs to Tomcat is unlikely to have fixed an
httpd commit)

He added me to the httpd group, so yes, related.

But: I was able to commit to httpd for years, last commit before the problem was on February 26:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=1293800&view=rev

I think I noticed that I wasn't in the httpd group some years ago but didn't bother because everything worked. So if I remember right the group wasn't lost recently. It is kind of unclear why this still worked in Feb. but no longer this week. But IMHO it's more of an infra question than a subversion dev thing.

Mostly an unfortunate chain of things to happen

- observed commit problem
- got the info that svn was read-only and should be back to read/write
- tried again without success, waited a few hours
- upgraded svn client, tried again without success
- then info that httpd group is missing, added to the httpd group
- tried again without success
- then tried with the serf config option not noticing the typo
  - hurray: success
  - thought it could be a bug because it seemed to work with serf
    and not with neon. But in fact was using neon all the time
    due to typo in config option
- then tried later without any option and again it worked
