Hi,

at first – very nice project!
But I can’t get svn working over http
and webDav.
Using svn://something everything works
fine.

In TortoiseSVN I get a 200 OK response
as server reply.

Anybody who can help?

greets
jo

Hi,

WebDav is not configured by default. The reason why we don’t configure it is because you can browse your code through the Trac interface.

You should do the following:

1. Modify Apache configuration: /apache2/conf/httpd.conf


<Location /subversion >
DAV svn                                                                                               
SVNPath "subversion_repository_path"   
</Location>

2. Check that the following modules are enabled in the Apache configuration file:

dav_module
dav_fs_module
dav_svn_module
authz_svn_module

3. You can copy the svn modules from the Subversion folder to apache2/modules folder.

Restart the Apache server. I hope it helps.

Hi,

First off, hats off to the Bitnami team. I just installed the Trac stack on a number of different flavors of windows (XP, Server 2008, Windows 7 64 bits) and was blown away by how easy it was.

I actually just went through the process of converting my trac stack from svnserve to apache. The required modules are already “in place” once the stack has finished installing. The only thing missing is the Location block in httpd.conf.

Moreover, if you want SSL, you could follow the instructions provided in TortoiseSVN’s help (http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN…. The Bitnami Trac Stack already has all the tools required to generate the certificate (namely, openssl). The TortoiseSVN instructions seem straightforward, although I have not tried them yet.

Sincerely,

Roger
