Configuring Subversion using SVNSERVE with SASL

[vinoth kumar]

 

Hello All,

 

I have downloaded subversion http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32svn/.

 

We tried to configure subversion using "SVNSERVE utility with SASL" in WIndows XP 32 bit machine. We are able to configure successfully.

We created the password database using saslpasswd2 utility.

 

The same is not working with Windows 7 64 bit machine. Here, the saslpasswd2 utility is not creating the password database.

Please guide us to configure the subversion using svnserve with SASL support.

 

What i am suspecting is that the setup i have downloaded from the above mentioned url is for 32 bit. I could not find setup for 64 bit.

If this is the case please send me the link for 64 bit setup.

 

Regards,

Vinoth Kumar S

This is no problem at all, the 32 Bit package will work just fine on
64 Bit Windows because it doesn't contain any kernel level code. Your
problem most likely is because of the differences of Windows XP and
Windows 7, e.g. that one is Admin by default on XP, but not on Windows
7. Depending on the user you used to execute saslpasswd2, where you
installed the software etc. it may simply be that Windows saves the
created password database in the virtual store of the users profile
directory.

You ca check those thins using Process Monitor while executing
saslpasswd2 and see where writes go, if some errors like ACCESS DENIED
were reported etc. or simply first look in your users VirtualStore:

C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\VirtualStore
