    I've been trying to use svn admin for awhile, and it seems like none of the create functions work :S

    Users, groups, or repositories.

    Is it broken?

    Hi tgp1994

    Normally it will work. I will check it tomorrow in the company :-O
    Which version of SVN and the UX-Version do you use ?

    Hmm, SVN version? :S I just installed it from Webmin, as a third party module. I'm not entirely sure <i>what</i> version of the SVN Admin I have, so I guess all I can tell you is whatever the latest version published to webmin is.

    I suppose there is your Problem.

    The "SVN Admin" Module require a ready installed and working SVN (http://tortoisesvn.net). (tortoisesvn.net%29) Additional, have you also already the values in Config-Menue correct set?

    But i can check the "SVN Admin" with the newest Webmin Version.

    No, I haven't set the settings there. It would be nice if it auto set them :S

    Sorry, i can't.

    There are many ways to configure defaults for SVN. But for the next version, i can create a type of "setup" on the first start.

    PS: Dos it now works on your side?

    Nah, haven't really used it since then.

    I suppose you have a point there… so then it would be nice if we could manage the individual repositories. All you'd have to do is parse each conf file on a per repository basis.

    Hi tgp19944

    I've developed the SVN_Admin Version 1.3.
    Feel free to checkit again.

    YES - You must manually configure the config-entrys
    YES - It wokrs only with one SVN_AUTH_FILE

    But i hope it can help you.

    Hello,

    I think I have the same problem : all the actions I'm trying are displaying a "bad header" error.

    The versions are :
    svn : tigris 1.4.6 (r28521)
    webmin 1.5.3
    SVN Admin 1.1, Last updated 2010-10-14 14:21:06

    The config is :
    PATH_SVN_LOG=
    PATH_SVN_GROUPINFO=
    PATH_SVN_ROOTREPOS=/var/svn
    PATH_SVN_USERINFO=
    URL_SVN_ROOT=
    PATH_SVN_AUTHFILE=/usr/share/webmin/svn/svn_auth_file
    PATH_SVN_BIN=/usr/bin/svn
    PATH_SVN_ACCESSFILE=/usr/share/webmin/svn/svn_access_file
    PATH_SVN_REPOINFO=

    Would you tell me what is missing?

    Hi math2244.

    Finally, the error "bad header" is a reason for an output before the script send an html Header.

    We are using SVN from tortoise.  All commands for creating repositories are using the SVN tool  "svnadmin". Check your PATH_SVN_BIN Path for svnadmin.

    BTW, are you shure that the SVN Auth-/Access file are not in the SVN bin directory?

    Please let me informed.

    Thanks for your quick answer.
    I've corrected the path svn bin. For the auth and access files, the config i've provided was the result of several tests. Effectively the auth and access must point to the svn ones.
    The format of these files do not seem to be exactly the same (with tigris), the section  is considered as a user by svn webmin module.  Besides, the SVN user tabs displays user=mdp as user name, is it normal?
    Still have the bad header.

    Hi math2244.

    I've uploaded the Version v1.2.BetaDebug.
    It contains a dropdown menue under "module config" for "Developer Mode". In this case, you will see a lot of return values and possible error messages. Maybe, you can figure out you problem.

    In our Company we use one ** "svn_auth_file" and one ** "svn_access_file" for all our repositorys.
    The format of the "svn_auth_file" is:

    "<LOGINNAME>:<PASSWORDHASH>"

    And our "svn_access_file" contains keywords like "" with the syntax <groupname> = <user1>,<user2>,<user3>,<usern>… and tags for the accessrights like ":" with the individual user accessrights like "@<groupname> = <accessrights (r/rw)>

    Example:
    svn_access_file

    Grp_A = User1, User2, User3
    Grp_B = User1, User4, User5

    @GrpA = rw
    @GrpB = r

    @GrpA = rw

    @GrpB = r

    Another point is, that we use SVN via Web with an Webbrowser or the TortoiseSVN Client.
    Therefore, we use SVN with Apache with an additional virtual host. The svn_auth_file is only used from this Apache virtual host.

    I hope i can help you a little bit more.
