I am hosting SVN on apache - ubuntu server. I thought all I needed to do to add access was edit the /etc/svn/access file with users or SVN.

But whenever I try to access the SVN after restarting apache, I still get the forbidden message.

Any help is appreciated.

This is part of my /etc/svn/access

[repo:/]
user1 = rw
user2 =rw

also, this in my apache configs

  # Our access control policy
  AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/svn/access
  Require valid-user

Please, show a part of apache config file, relevant to SVN configuration. Do you have authentication enabled there? – HUB Jun 8 '11 at 13:56

I'm not shure, but may be it is worth adding "AuthType Basic" and "AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwd/svn_users.passwd" before "Require valid-user"? Then apache would ask for a username and password... – HUB Jun 8 '11 at 14:30
And of course, "SVNParentPath /data/svn" or "SVNPath /data/svn" directive also needed. – HUB Jun 8 '11 at 14:32
