Apache - Configuration

httpd, the Apache HTTP Server

Copy bin/mod_dav_svn.so to the Apache modules folder.
Add the following to your Apache httpd.conf file:
```
LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
```
Note: You need both of these modules if mod_dav was compiled as a shared object (instead of statically linked directly to the httpd binary).
Add the following to your Apache httpd.conf file:
```
<Location /svn>
    DAV svn
    SVNParentPath /repository/svn
</Location>
```
Note: This configuration will support multiple Subversion repositories in the /repository/svn folder. Use the SVNPath directive to support a single repository.
Re-start Apache. You should now be able to browse to your repositories. e.g. to access a repository in \\repository\svn\\myrepo-svn, browse to http://localhost/svn/myrepo/.

Note: Don’t forget the trailing slash…

The above configuration will give you a public Subversion repository accessible over http. Any person who has access to the Apache server will be able to checkout and commit without authentication.

Apache - Authentication (Digest)

Create a password file (and the first user):

htdigest - manage user files for digest authentication
```
\tools\apache2.2\bin\htdigest -c \repository\apache\password\svn.htdigest "Subversion Repository" patrickk
```
Note: After the first user, you don’t need the “-c” option any more:
```
\tools\apache2.2\bin\htdigest \repository\apache\password\svn.htdigest "Subversion Repository" sams
```
Note: The realm specified as the second parameter in the htdigest command (in this example, Subversion Repository) must match the value in the Apache AuthName directive (see below).

Update the Apache conf/httpd.conf file:

LoadModule auth_digest_module modules/mod_auth_digest.so
LoadModule authn_file_module modules/mod_authn_file.so
LoadModule authz_user_module modules/mod_authz_user.so

<Location /svn>
    DAV svn
    SVNParentPath /repository/svn

    AuthType Digest
    AuthName "Subversion Repository"
    AuthDigestDomain /svn/
    AuthUserFile /repository/apache/password/svn.htdigest
    Require valid-user
</Location>

Apache - SSL

Copy the instructions in SSL Certificate, SSL - Certificate

Completing this step should allow you to access your Subversion repository using SSL and non-SSL connections.

To secure the Subversion repository so it can only be accessed through SSL, add the SSLRequireSSL directive to the Apache conf/httpd.conf file:

<Location /svn>
    DAV svn

    SSLRequireSSL

    SVNParentPath /repository/svn

    AuthType Digest
    AuthName "Subversion Repository"
    AuthDigestDomain /svn/

    AuthUserFile /repository/apache/password/svn.htdigest
    Require valid-user

</Location>
