|  Need help installing SVN on my VPS
So I've been pulling my hair out for the past couple of hours trying to figure this out. I'm somewhat familiar using SVN, but never tried installing it.
Tech support at my VPS hosting company installed SVN for me, but as for configuring it, I'm on my own, since they don't support it.
So I'm able to ssh and create a SVN directory with
which creates these files/folders within the directory:
README.txt
/conf
/dav
/db
format
/hooks
/locks
I then edited the 'passwd' file within the /conf directory
When I try to connect with my SVN client, I get this error
I looked around Googling things, but everyone seems to have a different way to do things. Also reading though subversion.tigris.org is a headache in itself.
Any help would be great!!! |

I have something similar in there. Do those #'s mean that it's commented out? |
