What doesn't work? Please be more specific. Are you trying to list the repository? With svn or with a browser? Are you trying check out from the repository? Commit to the repository? Which URLs are you using during testing? Please be precise here. Simple typing errors can often lead to the impression that authz doesn't work. > Please consult the pastebin links given below to know my configuration. > > 1) http://pastebin.com/1X71kM9P (/etc/httpd/conf.d/svn.conf) > 2) http://pastebin.com/2xhN3pcc (/srv/svn/config/svnauthz.conf) > 3) CentOS 5.x, subversion v1.6.11 This is not showing a complete configuration. Did you load mod_authz_svn into Apache HTTPD? This is required for authz to work in the first place. Your HTTPD configuration snippet doesn't show whether or not you're loading the mod_authz_svn module. You're using SVNPath so you don't need to prefix paths in the authz rules with the repository name (Production:). See http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.serverconfig.pathbasedauthz.html which says: If you're using the SVNParentPath directive, it's important to specify the repository names in your sections. If you omit them, a section such as [/some/dir] will match the path /some/dir in every repository. If you're using the SVNPath directive, however, it's fine to only define paths in your sections—after all, there's only one repository.
