cant view project's history

[phanorcoll]

i get the following error when trying to view the hostory of a folder
or a file

svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/proyectos/trunk/mod_soporte'
svn: PROPFIND of '/proyectos/trunk/mod_soporte': authorization failed
(http://xxx.xxx.xx.xx)

Which mean you are not allowing anonymous read's.

[phanorcoll]

no i get

svn: Can't open file '/root/.subversion/servers': Permission denied

[Scott Grayban]

Well that's pretty obvious then.

Wrong permissions set so check that. Actually accessing anything that is under /root is generally forbidden as /root is set 750 for security reasons.

I agree it must be a permission problem. The subversion client looks
for configuration in [current user]/.subversion folder. For some
reason your web server's user has root as home dir but it does not
have read permission.

I suggest you edit repos-web/open/log/index.php and add a
"--config-dir" parameter to the subversion command.

svn: When specifying working copy paths, only one target may be given.

The error you got might be caused by wrong parameter order.

Try something like this (the first row is there already):
$cmd = $svn.' log --xml --verbose --incremental --non-interactive';
$cmd .= ' --config-dir "/tmp/repos-web-config-dir"; // added because
default location is not readable for web server user
...

Here's the documentation for the extra svn command options:

hi,

now i get

svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/proyectos/trunk/index.php'
svn: PROPFIND of '/proyectos/trunk/index.php': authorization failed

i have configured restricted access to the repository, I access with my username and password, but when i try to view the history I get that error.

This is my subversion.conf file

<Location /proyectos>
   DAV svn
   SVNParentPath /var/www/repositorio/proyectos
   SVNListParentPath on
   SVNIndexXSLT "/repos-web/view/repos.xsl"

      AuthType Basic
      AuthName "Repositorio Proyectos"
      AuthUserFile /xxx/xxx/passwd/clavessvn
      Require valid-user

</Location>

thanks

That's good -- the svn command works. The log viewer does not know
credentials. You could change the $repo variable to use the local url
(file:///var/www/repositorio/proyectos). This will bypass security,
but can only be used to see logs. There are other options that involve
--username and --password parameters in the svn command and access
control in apache, depending on your requirements.

I changed the $repo variable to use the local url (file:///var/www/repositorio/proyectos) , I get a blank page..no errors. nothing, then I tried setting the username and password

$cmd .= ' --username XXX --password XXX'; and I get this

svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/proyectos/trunk/index.php'

svn: Could not open the requested SVN filesystem..

Strange. I notice in your config you don't use an AuthzSVNAccessFile
so for your setup a local URL combined with
<Location /repos-web>

AuthType Basic
AuthName "Repositorio Proyectos"
AuthUserFile /xxx/xxx/passwd/clavessvn
Require valid-user
</Location>

(or an equivalent <Directory>) should give you adequate security.

No need for the --username then but I don't know why you get an empty
page. If you "view source" is there any XML? Can you echo the command
in the php and try to run it in a terminal?

One more thought: There might be PHP errors that you don't see unless
you've set "display_errors = On" in your php.ini. If you have
"log_errors = On" you can see them in the apache log instead.

That's nothing that the log viewer code or svn could send, and it can
not be an XSLT problem because when repos style runs you see xml in
view source. Did you try display_errors = On in php.ini? Did you try
to echo the command and execute it manually?
