Error number 13 - Remote access svn with dav_svn failing
- by C. Ross
I'm getting the following error on my svn repository
<D:error>
<C:error/>
<m:human-readable errcode="13">
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
</m:human-readable>
</D:error>
I've followed the instructions from the How to Geek, and the Ubuntu Community Page, but to no success. I've even given the repository 777 permissions.
<Location /svn/myProject >
# Uncomment this to enable the repository
DAV svn
# Set this to the path to your repository
SVNPath /svn/myProject
# Comments
# Comments
# Comments
AuthType Basic
AuthName "My Subversion Repository"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd
# More Comments
</Location>
The permissions follow:
drwxrwsrwx 6 www-data webdev 4096 2010-02-11 22:02 /svn/myProject
And svnadmin validates the directory
$svnadmin verify /svn/myProject/
* Verified revision 0.
and I'm accessing the repository at
http://ipAddress/svn/myProject
Edit: The apache error log says
[Fri Feb 12 13:55:59 2010] [error] [client <ip>] (20014)Internal error: Can't open file '/svn/myProject/format': Permission denied

[Fri Feb 12 13:55:59 2010] [error] [client <ip>] Could not open the requested SVN filesystem [500, #13]
Even though I confirmed that this file is ugo readable and writable.
What am I doing wrong?
