mod_dav_svn: SVNListParentPath and AuthzSVNAccessFile conflict
Last modified: 2015-03-04 09:03:56 EST
Description of problem: directive AuthzSVNAccessFile doesn't work well together with SVNListParentPath on Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mod_dav_svn-1.6.11-5.el6 subversion-1.6.11-5.el6 How reproducible: deterministic Steps to Reproduce: 0. there are svn repositories in /var/www/svn/ 1. cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf <Location /example/> DAV svn SVNParentPath /var/www/svn/ SVNListParentPath on AuthBasicProvider file AuthType Basic AuthName "Subversion" AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/subversion.passwd Require valid-user Order allow,deny Allow from All Satisfy Any Options Indexes MultiViews IncludesNoExec AuthzForceUsernameCase Lower AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/httpd/conf/subversion.authorization </Location> 2. cat /etc/httpd/conf/subversion.authorization [*] * = rw [/] * = rw Actual results: you need to specify '<Location /example/>' to be able list parent repositories. '<Location /example>' doesn't allow you to list collection of repositories. Expected results: '<Location /example>' is enough and you can see collection of repositories on http://<hostname>/example Which works well when you comment out AuthzSVNAccessFile line Additional info: There is common work around for authz and SVNListParentPath issue RedirectMatch ^(/example)$ $1/
