Im trying to Install WebSvn on my server but the repositories im trying to connect to have a self signed certificate so websvn is unable to connect.

Server certificate verification failed: certificate issued for a different hostname, issuer is not trusted

Is there some sort of setting im missing in setting this up?

i don't know websvn, but your problem is: the self-signed certificate is not trusted.

do you get this message in your browser or on the server?

when in the browser, import your self-signed as trusted to the browser cert store. when it is on the server, try to add SSLCACertificateFile to your apache config.
