On Fedora os, I have problem to access SVN Repo and commit via HTTP.

Here is my config file

/etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so LoadModule dontdothat_module modules/mod_dontdothat.so <Location /svn> DAV svn SVNParentPath /var/www/svn SVNListParentPath On SVNPathAuthz Off AuthType Basic AuthName "myRepos" AuthUserFile /etc/svn-pass AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/svn-authz Require valid-user </Location> 

Error:

Share project was failed. svn: Can't open file '/var/www/svn/repo/db/txn-current-lock': Permission deniedsvn: MKACTIVITY of '/svn/repo/!svn/act/4b515a33-4801-0010-8d84-bddd16ee6e1b': 500 Internal Server Error (http://example.com:8080)

And here is the directory :

./repo/db: total 56K drwxr-sr-x. 6 apache apache 4.0K Sep 1 01:03 ./ drwxr-xr-x. 6 apache apache 4.0K Aug 30 23:20 ../ -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 2 Sep 1 01:03 current -r--r--r--. 1 apache apache 22 Aug 30 23:20 format -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 2.0K Aug 30 23:20 fsfs.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 5 Aug 30 23:20 fs-type -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 2 Aug 30 23:20 min-unpacked-rev -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 4.0K Aug 30 23:24 rep-cache.db drwxr-sr-x. 3 apache apache 4.0K Aug 30 23:20 revprops/ drwxr-sr-x. 3 apache apache 4.0K Aug 30 23:20 revs/ drwxr-sr-x. 2 apache apache 4.0K Sep 1 01:03 transactions/ -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 2 Sep 1 01:03 txn-current -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 0 Aug 30 23:20 txn-current-lock drwxr-sr-x. 2 apache apache 4.0K Sep 1 01:03 txn-protorevs/ -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 37 Aug 30 23:20 uuid -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 0 Aug 30 23:20 write-lock 

and

SELinux problem again 

It's permission problem. But not "classic" read/write permissions of apache user, but selinux one.

Apache cannot write to files labeled as httpd_sys_content_t they can be only read by apache.

You have 2 possibilities:

label svn repository files as httpd_sys_content_rw_t:

 1- chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_rw_t /path/to/your/svn/repo 

set selinux boolean httpd_unified --> on

 2 - setsebool -P httpd_unified=1 

Prefered 2nd possibility.
