Check the SELinux settings in /etc/sysconfig/selinux. Set the line to 'SELINUX=permissive' (or disabled) After changing the SELINUX value a reboot is required Additional add a trailing '/' so you config looks so. RewriteEngine on # the trailing '/' in /svn/ is needed to browse repos with standart browser! RedirectMatch ^(/svn)$ $1/ <Location /svn/> DAV svn SVNParentPath /var/svn/ # Authentication: Digest AuthName "Subversion repository" AuthType Digest AuthUserFile /etc/svn-auth.htdigest # Authorization: Authenticated users only Require valid-user </Location> > > On Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 6:19 PM, Ben Reser <b...@reser.org> wrote: > >> On 8/19/13 9:07 AM, Scott Frankel wrote: >>> I'm new to SVN server configuration and find myself setting up a CentOS >> 6.4 server with svn version 1.6.1, following the red-bean book. >> >> I'd strongly urge you not to use 1.6.1, see the list of applicable >> security issues here: >> http://subversion.apache.org/security/ >> >> If you're using the CentOS packages they may have patched those issues >> without updating the svn version number.
