I am running subversion 1.6.15 on a CentOS machine. Everything works fine except creating new repositories. - It says unknown error.

    Hi,
    can you make sure that the application (basicly) the apache server has the permission to execute the "svnadmin" command and has write permission to the path of your repositories?

    I'm really sure it has the permission. svnadmin belongs to root:root but it's 777. I also added the folder to openbase_dir.

    Hi,
    can you try it again and look in your "/var/log/apache2/error.log" file for an PHP error, please? I never tried it with CentOS, sorry.

    You may must change the error logging in "ifsvnadmin/include/config.inc.php" from E_ERROR to E_ALL in the first code line.

    Thanks

    I forgot to mention something important. Could you upload your "data/config.ini" file here?

    Should you use LDAP you should hide you LDAP password in the file before.

    Thanks

    Do you have SElinux enabled?
    Today i installed CentOS 5.5 and figured out that SElinux blocks a lot of operations (write access).
