<4> After Apache package installed, run below command to verify:
|
|__ $ rpm -q httpd
>> httpd-2.2.3-92.el5_11
<5> Checking if Apache server up and running by either of the command:
|
|__ $ /etc/init.d/httpd status
|
|__ $ service httpd status
>> httpd is stopped
<6> Some of the RHEL system enables SELinux[Security Enhanced]. If the feature turned on, before starting Apache , please take reference for addition step:
|
|__ $ sestatus
>> SELinux status: disabled
<7> Start Apache server:
|
|__ $ service httpd start
|
| >> Starting httpd: [ OK ]
|
|
|__ $ service httpd status
>> httpd (pid 987) is running...
<8> The URL of Apache landing page is https:localhost:
|
|__ o. The default html file is /var/www/index.html
<9> Install SVN software and module mod_dav_svn. The purpose of "mod_dav_svn" is communicating SVN with Apache to display the repository directory on Web GUI:
|
|__ $ yum install mod_dav_svn subversion

<10> After SVN package installed, then starting config SVN server. Firstly, creating SVN parent folder, which is equal to root volume of a system:
|
|__ $ mkdir /var/www/svn
chmod 755 /var/www/svn
<11> Under Apache server folder, there is configuration file for SVN. By which, telling the SVN metadata to Apache:
|
|__ $ vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf
#========== Original =============
# LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
# LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
#
# <Location /svn>
# DAV svn
# SVNParentPath /var/www/svn
#
# Limit write permission to list of valid users.
# <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
# # Require SSL connection for password protection.
# # SSLRequireSSL
#
# AuthType Basic
# AuthName "Subversion repositories"
# AuthUserFile /etc/svn-auth-users
# Require valid-user
# </LimitExcept>
# </Location>
#=========== After re-configurion ==========
<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /var/www/svn
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repositories"
# Create repository username/password, and saving the credential enclosed this file:
AuthUserFile /etc/svn-auth-users
# Saving repository user permission enclosed this access control file:
AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/svn-access-control
Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
</Location>
#=========== Create SVN repository on a regular volume ==========
<Location /repo_name>
DAV svn
SVNPath /u01/repo_name
<LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repositories"
AuthUserFile /etc/svn-auth-users
AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/svn-access-control
Require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
</Location>
<12> Creating repository username. For example, "test_user" is the username:
|
|__ $ htpasswd -m /etc/svn-auth-users test_user
|
| New password: <typeing in password>
| Re-type new password: <typeing in password again>
| Adding password for user test_user
|
|
|
|
|_ $ cat /etc/svn-auth-users
test_user:$apr1$opiTm...$RxRjzf.tj.q/cQBvcba/y0
<13> Creating SVN repository:
|
|__ $ pwd
|
| /var/www/svn
|
|
|__ $ svnadmin create testrepo
|
|
|__ $ ls -ltr
|
| drwx------ 6 root root 4096 Apr 12 12:38 testrepo
|
|
|__ $ chown -R apache.apache testrepo
|
|
|__ $ ls -ltr
|
| drwx------ 6 apache apache 4096 Apr 12 12:38 testrepo
|
|
|__ $ service httpd restart
<14> Assigning permission to repository users/roles by copying following content within repo access control file:
|
|__ $ cp /var/www/svn/testrepo/conf/authz /etc/svn-access-control
|
|
|__ $ vi /etc/svn-access-control
[groups]
admin=test_user
[/]
@admin=rw
[testrepo:/]
test_user=rw
<15> Modify SVN repository config file to limit anonymous control by uncommenting below 2 parameters:
|
|__ $ vi /var/www/svn/testrepo/conf/svnserve.conf
## Disable anonymous access ##
anon-access = none
## Enable access control ##
authz-db = authz
<16> Restart Apache:
|
|__ $ service httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
Starting httpd: [ OK ]
<17> Create trunk, branches and tags structure under testrepo:
|
|__ o. Create “template” directories with following command:
| |
| |__ $ mkdir -p /tmp/svn-structure-template/{trunk,branches,tags}
|
|
|
|
|__ o. Then import template to project repository using “svn import” command:
|
|__ $ svn import -m 'Initial import' /tmp/svn-structure-template/ http://10.234.92.21/svn/testrepo/
Adding /tmp/svn-structure-template/trunk
Adding /tmp/svn-structure-template/branches
Adding /tmp/svn-structure-template/tags
Committed revision 1.
<18> Now, the SVN parent folders should be hooked with Web GUI on browser - http://10.234.92.21/svn/testrepo/, or use TortoiseSVN repo-brower:
