So I have gone through about a dozen other threads as well as read the http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.serverconfig.pathbasedauthz.html I feel like I have tried everything, and either there is anonymous read to the repository url, or I loose read and write access with authenticated users. I must be doing something stupid.
dav_svn.authz file :
[MyRepository:/]
$anonymous =
name = rw
* = r
[/]
* = r
$anonymous =
$authenticated = rw
name = rw
my site file:
<Location /repourl>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /var/lib/svn
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion Repository"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd
<IfModule mod_authz_svn.c>
AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.authz
</IfModule>
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
</Location>
Overall without * = r my authenticated user cannot read or write, but with * = r there is anonymous access, i.e i can navigate to the url and see it. First question, even when * = r comes first, anonnymous users can not access the root '/' to the repository, but can access "MyRepository" even though they have the same settings? Also why would anonymous get access when "$anonymous =" and "Require valid-user". Basically I just need no anonymous access and RW access for the user. I have tried about 100 different combinations of things seeing if any of them would work, I just didn't want to post all the different combinations I have tried. any help is greatly appreciated.
