Svn – Configuring Subversion (SVN) repository via Apache on Bluehost VPS Server

I am trying to configuring Subversion (SVN) on our Bluehost VPS server which has CentOS v6.5. So far, Installation went smoothly by following this guide -> http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Subversion

However, now I am stuck at its 4.2 step [Subversion's Apache configs].

Ok so here the story goes.

Mostly on web the guides to install Subversion (svn) on bluehost are for shared server for whom the steps on CentOS official wiki page of Subversion (let's call it A) doesn't work hence they follow this guide (let's call it B).

The module mod_dav_svn allows subverion to be served via Apache, because its installation is not allowed on shared server thats what I have learned. Hence many people fall for guide B, which can work for us by establishing svn connection over ssh (svn+ssh) however I am trying to bend the spoon to see if svn connection can be established over apache.

Following guide A

I have a url svn.domain.com pointing to /home/username/public_html/svn.domain.com/ in which I have setup the repositories named repos1

and have setup subversion.conf file in /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf as following

LoadModule dav_svn_module     modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module   modules/mod_authz_svn.so

<Location /repos1>
        DAV svn
        SVNPath /home/username/public_html/svn.domain.com/repos1
        AuthType Basic
        AuthName "Subversion repos"
        AuthUserFile /etc/svn-auth-conf
        Require valid-user
</Location>

and opening http://svn.domain.com/repos1 it displays plain contents of the directory located in /home/username/public_html/svn.domain.com/repos1.

Where I assume it should ask for password and display Revision 0 or at least trunk, branch and tag folders.

Any help or direction would be appreciated.

• 1: repos1 folder is created by svnadmin create repos1 command.
• 2: This setup has worked for us on different server but they have very very limited space.
