Hi, I know this has been asked before, but none of the suggestions or steps outlined have solved the problem for me. I've followed the exact steps at the HowTo page, and then made modifications based on other threads in the forum, but nothing seems to help. I have redmine.mydomain.org and svn.mydomain.org on the same box, served through mongrel and apache. Everything is configured, except for 3 issues (probably all related):

Problems¶

1. I can't see the svn repository of a private project through redmine, instead getting the following error:

The entry or revision was not found in the repository.

2. svn ls svn.mydomain.org/svn/private-project fails with the following:

jamest@localhost:~$ svn ls svn.mydomain.org/svn/private-project
Authentication realm: <http://svn.mydomain.org/svn/private-project:80> Redmine Projects
Password for 'jamest':
Authentication realm: <http://svn.mydomain.org/svn/private-project:80> Redmine Projects
Username:
Password for '':
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/private-project'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/private-project': authorization failed (http://svn.mydomain.org)

jamest is a developer on the private-project project, with every repository permission granted (view, manage, browse, commit).

3. Committing to both public and private projects fails in the same way, with repeated requests for username and password.

Notes¶

• Ubuntu Feisty
• Redmine 0.8.3
• Repositories have been automatically created by reposman.rb.
• SVN stuff lives at /data/svn/public-project , /data/svn/private-project
• All project internal names match the svn repository name exactly.
• All project internal names use only lowercase a-z, plus dashes.
• The svn repositories are chowned as root:www-data.
• Apache runs as www-data.
• Checking out public repositories is fine.

As someone else noted, when repositories for private projects are created by reposman.rb, the root_url field in the repositories table is not filled in, allowing the URL to be changed in the Repository settings tab. This is different behaviour to public repositories. In attempting to fix this, I copied the url into the root_url directly, which had the effect of locking the input field in the Repository settings tab. However, this did not make any difference.

Redmine Apache Config¶

(IP addresses modified, but consistent throughout)

<VirtualHost 100.100.100.100:80>
  ServerAdmin jamest@mydomain.org
  DocumentRoot /data/www/rails_apps/redmine-0.8

  <Proxy *>

        Allow from all
  </Proxy>

SVN Apache Config¶

<VirtualHost 100.100.100.100:80>
        ServerName svn.mydomain.org
        ServerAdmin jamest@mydomain.org

        PerlLoadModule Apache::Redmine

        <Directory "/data/www/svn.mydomain.org/html">
                Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews Includes ExecCGI
                AllowOverride All
                Order allow,deny
                Allow from all
        </Directory>

        <Location /svn>
                DAV svn
                SVNParentPath "/data/svn" 

                AuthType Basic
                Authname "Redmine Project Tracking" 
                Require valid-user

                PerlAccessHandler Apache::Authn::Redmine::access_handler

                RedmineDSN "DBI:Pg:dbname=redmine;host=localhost" 
                RedmineDbUser "redmine" 
                RedmineDbPass "password" 

        </Location>
</VirtualHost>

Mongrel Cluster Config¶

---
user: root
cwd: /data/www/rails_apps/redmine-0.8
log_file: log/mongrel.log
port: "9000" 
environment: production
group: www-data
pid_file: log/mongrel.pid
servers: 2

Any help you can give would be much appreciated - at this point I'm just going around in circles.

Cheers,

Jamie.
