Hi, I have a WebSVN installation and I want to enable a per repository authentication. At this page: http://demo.websvn.info/filedetails.php?repname=WebSVN&path=/trunk/doc/install.html#authentication there's the WebSVN documentation on how to do that. Since my ISP (DreamHost) doesn't provide SSPI authentication, I've tried to use the Basic authentication method instead and added these lines to my .htaccess:
<Location /wsvn/[repo name]/> AuthType Basic AuthName "Repository svn" AuthUserFile /home/liberenote/svn/materiale.passwd Require valid-user </Location> and I was planning to add a Location section for every repository I have. Unfortunately, if I add the lines above Apache gives me an error 500, and its log says: /home/liberenote/svnfolder/.htaccess: <Location not allowed here I'd like to know if basic authentication isn't allowed in the location directive, if no authentication method is allowed (and so the websvn documentation doesn't tell the truth) or if it's the dreamhost apache server which is misconfigured. many thanks, Iacopo Benesperi --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
