Been trying to figure it out from the help of this post,
http://www.virtualmin.com/node/8116
“The subversion password files are in /home/$USERNAME/etc, or /home/$USERNAME/$DOMAINNAME/etc, and you can treat them just like a htpasswd file. You can use “man htpasswd” to get a list of options.”
I don’t have$USERNAME folder in home directory. I only have VS folders in home directory.
http://dzone.xxxxxxx.com/svn in the browser returns an authentication request pop up. Using the same log in credentials as the VS Owner (dzone.xxxxxx.com), the browser returns 403 Forbidden page. The error log for this shows: “The URI does not contain the name of a repository. [403, #190001]”
I checked “etc” for dzone and found svn-access.conf with a list of my repos and svn.basic.passwd with a single line:
dzone:$1$77xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxHkUPgDhCR0
dzone is the same user I was trying to log in with and I used the same password as I would log into virtualmin with under dzone. I verified I was using the right password by logging into VM.
is there somewhere that sets a password different from the login password for dzone?
Hmm… I’m curious if adding a new subversion user happens to help.
If you go into Edit Mail and FTP users, select “Add user to this server”. Fill out the username info there, then go down to “Other user permissions”, and enable “Allow access to databases”.
