I think you are mistaken, this error probably not returned by Subversion (since it's not configured on that location) but by the Apache HTTPd server itself. Most likely your server interprets the request as a PROPFIND on directory "badname" within the directory defined by the server configuration option DocumentRoot. The default server configuration probably only allows GET requests on such paths; which makes a kind of sense, since the PROPFIND method is defined by the DAV protocol, not HTTP itself. -- Brane -- Branko Čibej | Director of Subversion WANdisco // Non-Stop Data e. br...@wandisco.com
