OK, so i created the repos and have created users and put them into different groups. i tried the url, got the certificate, but i am not able to log into it from remote computers, do i have to set some type of permissions or use the ip address?

I just need to be able to access the repo from different computers.

you need to install apache (at least that is how i could only get it to work)
just google apache, download and install 2.2
(fromhttp://www.codeproject.com/KB/winsdk/SubversionApache.aspx)
When the installation is finished, go to the bin directory within the Subversion installation, find two files with extension *.so, and put them into the (Apache)/modules directory. The files are mod_authz_svn.so and mod_dav_svn.so.

Go to the conf sub-directory within the Apache installation directory and open the httpd.conf file in any text editor.

Add the following lines:

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so

Now assuming your reposotory is at C:\svns\repos1 and you want to redirect localhost/svn to it,
add this to the httpd.conf:




<Location /svn>

DAV svn

SVNListParentPath on

SVNParentPath C:/svns

</Location>



If you get an error, tell me

[byteit101]

once you do that restart apache( or restart the computer), and if that computer's ip address is 192.168.101, on another computr (same network) type in http://192.168.1.101/svn
your web browser, you should see your repository there, now you can access it from other computers
then from windriver, new, project> from svn, new connection to http://192.168.1.101/svn/yourrepoitory
and finish out the dialog.
read the WR help for more details

[EDIT] Actually i followed the directions with editing the httpd file, but when i restart apache i get this error message:

Invalid command 'DAV', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

[byteit101]

did you go to the bin directory within the Subversion installation, find two files with extension *.so, and put them into the (Apache)/modules directory. The files are mod_authz_svn.so and mod_dav_svn.so

also make sure all three lines below are in httpd.conf (and restart apache after you modify it)
LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so

If that does not work, copy C:\Program Flies\Subversion\libapr-1.dll and libapriconv-1.dll to (apache)\bin and replace the current ones

I think you need WebDAV not DAV. Not sure though

[byteit101]

no, you need DAV, but you can have WebDAV if you really want. DAV is part of SVN. DAV is related to WebDAV, but different (I think)
EDIT: I dont have WebDAV on my server, just DAV, and Subversion Works fine

[pyr0b0y]

i retried everything you just said, but i still get the same error, is there any other way to do it besides using apache?

[byteit101]

I think you can do something like svn://x.y.z.q/repositories/path/not/ending/in/a/slash
never tried that.

are you sure that in (apache)/conf/httpd.conf you have the line LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so uncommented (without a semicolon at the beginning)?

I tried it without the # sign at first, but then i get errors, so i tried it with the # sign and just came up with the DAV error

OOps! # is the comment, not ; I was thinking php.ini
you want it without the # sign to uncomment it (what is the error?)

[pyr0b0y]

This is what i inserted in the httpd file

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so

<Location /svn/>

DAV svn

SVNListParentPath on

SVNParentPath C:/Repositories /* This is where my default folder is */
</Location>

the error that get is

[byteit101]

recopy mod_dav_svn.so to the modules dir from the svn dir. if that does not work, reinstall subversion (existing repositories will be kept)
EDIT: and of course, re-copy it
