I just did: yum install subversion yum install mod_dav_svn Then i edited /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf and here is the content: Location /svn DAV svn SVNParentPath /var/www/svn # Limit write permission to list of valid users.

That's ok.
Have you tried switching to the apache user ('su - apache') to see if
you can touch a file/read files in that directory? I'm still thinking
this is a permissions issue.
