Ensuring directory perms for svn repos are correct

  • Create user/group svn, and ensure svnserve runs as this user/group.
  • Add user www-data to group svn:
sudo adduser www-data svn
  • Create as a script (eg. /usr/local/bin/svnfixperms) and run:
#!/bin/sh
for dir in /var/lib/svn/repositories/*
do
    echo "Fixing perms for $dir..."
    for subdir in $dir/dav $dir/db
    do
        find $subdir -exec chown svn:svn {} \;
        find $subdir -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
        find $subdir -type d -exec chmod 2775 {} \;
    done
done

Creating a new repository

  1. sudo svnadmin create /var/lib/svn/repositories/reponame
  2. sudo svnfixperms
  3. svn import /var/lib/svn/template svn://localhost/reponame

Authorization failed error

If you're using the svn://... syntax, is svnserve running?
