Yes, I think that is exactly the problem here.
I will try to create the password file with htpasswd.
Does Apache suggest where the password file should reside?
Is it restricted to a certain location? I couldn't find this in the 
documentation.
Thank you.
Dave

It looks like you are using the standard location for the svnserve password 
file as the location for the Apache password file.  I suspect you are trying 
to use as svnserve password file which has the wrong format for Apache; you 
need to use a file created using htpasswd.

You are using a single password file for all repositories in /svnrepos but you 
have chosen to put that single file inside the /svnrepos/test1 repository. 
That can work but is a bit odd.
