svn / Apache installation question
Folks, I use apache to host subversion and all seems to be working. However, I happened to read the TortoiseSVN help file this morning and noticed the following: 4. Copy the file /bin/libdb*.dll and /bin/intl3_svn.dll from the Subversion installation directory to the Apache bin directory. [1] I checked and these files are not in the apache bin directory but nothing seems broken! Is this advice incorrect / out-of-date or is something broken that I have not noticed yet? Many thanks for any insights, ~ mark c [1] http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-serversetup-apac he.html under Installing Subversion

Did that change recently? I know Subversion used to compile just fine with Apache 2.0.x or 2.2.x and that there were binaries posted for both. But I can't find those now. Compiling Subversion just fine on legacy operating systems is painful, inlcluding RHEL 4 (which contained httpd-2.0.63). The dependencies on more recent versions of Python, neon, and SQlite are awkward to mange. If possible, update to RHEL 5 or CentOS 5 and grab the RPMforge release of subversion-1.6.12. You'll save yourself a lot of pain: I found backporting to RHEL 4 to be a big problem and gave it up as too tough to provide a completely workable install, especially for x86_64, years ago.
SVN Apache Installation
I am trying to install TortoiseSVN version 1.6.8 and use it on a Unix server running Apache/2.0.63 (Red Hat). Can someone please enlighten me on where to get these two packages, and how to install them?

TortoiseSVN is not a server, it is a client, and it only runs on Windows. The Subversion modules for Apache require Apache 2.2.x, so you will need to upgrade or install 2.2 in parallel with 2.0.63.
