Hi everyone,

I'm having some trouble getting this to work and hoped someone out there may have some advice for me. I'm trying to setup Apache 2.0 with Subversion. I've created the repository on a network drive, and I'm referencing that drive in my httpd.conf like this:

<Location /repo>
DAV on
</Location>

<Location /repo>
DAV svn
SVNPath R:/Subversion/repo

ORDER deny,allow
Allow from all
</Location>

I'm not sure if I need both of these tags or just the last one.

After trying this, I see these errors in the error.log:


[Wed Jan 19 16:57:33 2005] [error] A subtree cannot specify a different DAV provider than its parent.
[Wed Jan 19 16:57:33 2005] [error] [client 10.0.0.152] (20014)Error string not specified yet: Can't open file 'R:/Subversion/repo/format': The system cannot find the path specified.
[Wed Jan 19 16:57:33 2005] [error] [client 10.0.0.152] Could not fetch resource information. [500, #0]
[Wed Jan 19 16:57:33 2005] [error] [client 10.0.0.152] Could not open the requested SVN filesystem [500, #720003]


Now even if I remove the first Location tag, I still get these errors:


[Thu Jan 20 09:59:01 2005] [error] [client 10.0.0.152] (20014)Error string not specified yet: Can't open file 'R:/Subversion/repo/format': The system cannot find the path specified.

[Thu Jan 20 09:59:01 2005] [error] [client 10.0.0.152] Could not open the requested SVN filesystem [500, #720003]


Can anyone please help?
 
Forgot to mention..running this on Windows 2000 server and yes I'm really trying to make the repository a mapped network drive. I set it up with FSFS file type not BDB.
