Berkeley DB error while opening environment for filesystem..

[Exie]

Hi,

I installed SVN 1.1.4 from an RPM on a RHEL4 box.
I then installed mod_dav_svn 1.1.4 into Apache 2.0.52

I created a repo in /usr/local/svnroot
restarted my web server, tried connecting. When I checked the error log it said:
[Mon Aug 14 14:11:55 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (20014)Error string not specified yet: Berkeley DB error while opening environ
ment for filesystem /usr/local/svnroot/db:\nPermission denied

I tried a:
svnadmin recover /usr/local/svnroot
... which came back ok. But I still couldnt connect. any ideas ?

Ok Ok, I'm an idiot! I got it working, when I created the repo, I used a new user called "svnadmin" and set the group as "svnusers".

Although I added the apache user into the svnusers group, simply resetting the group for the repository files, it works cool.

So the file system group for my repository is now "apache". <shrug> but it's working, so I'm happy.
