# SVN installation (Linux VPS/Cloud) Apache 2.2

1. Via SSH on your server execute the following command to install SVN:  

`# yum install subversion`

2. Check if dav modules are loaded:

\`/etc/init.d/httpd -M | grep dav

dav\_module (static)\
dav\_fs\_module (static)\
dav\_lock\_module (static)\
dav\_svn\_module (shared)\`

If this modules are missing you need to rebuild apache using /scripts/easyapache.

1. Select the profile that you wish to modify
2. Click **Next Step** in the **Apache Version stage**
3. Click **Next Step** in the **PHP Version stage**
4. Click **Exhaustive Options List**
5. Perform one of the following actions in the Exhaustive Options List:

* To install the **mod\\\_dav** Apache module, select the **Dav option**.
* To install the **mod\\\_davz** Apache module, select the **Davz option**.

6. Click **Save and Build**.

Also make sure whether **neon installed or not**, if not installed:

[http://www.webdav.org/neon/neon-0.28.4.tar.gz](http://www.webdav.org/neon/neon-0.28.4.tar.gz)

`tar -xzvf neon-0.28.4.tar.gz 
cd neon-0.28.4 
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/neon`

3. **Install and configure SVN**. Execute the commands via SSH:

`wget http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-1.6.3.tar.bz2 
tar xfj subversion-1.6.3.tar.bz2 
wget http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-amalgamation-3.7.0.tar.gz 
tar -zxvf sqlite-amalgamation-3.7.0.tar.gz 
cd subversion-1.6.3 
mkdir sqlite-amalgamation 
cp /usr/src/sqlite-3.7.0/sqlite3.c /usr/src/subversion-1.6.3`

4. Configure the **subversion**.

Check the apr source directory. Usually it is: **/home/cpeasyapache/src/httpd-2.2/srclib/apr/.**

**Execute:**

`./configure --prefix=/usr/local/subversion --with-apr=/home/cpeasyapache/src/httpd-2.2/srclib/apr/ --with-apr-util=/home/cpeasyapache/src/httpd-2.2/srclib/apr-util/ --with-neon=/usr/local/neon 
make 
make install`

5. Create **SVN for cpanel user**:

\`mkdir -v /home/user/directory/repository

/usr/bin/svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /usr/local/subversion/repository\`

That should create a subversion repository under **/usr/local/subversion/repository**.

6. Fix **permissions for the created directory**:

`chown -R user:nobody /home/user/dir/repository 
chmod -R 770 /home/user/dir/repository`

Put the following entries in **/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2/user/domain/svn.conf**

`DAV svn 
SVNListParentPath On 
SVNPath /home/user/directory/repository 
AuthType Basic 
AuthName "Subversion repository" 
AuthUserFile /home/user/directory/repository/conf/authz 
Require valid-user`

Save it.

Then run:

`/scripts/ensure\_vhost\_includes --user=username`

7. Adding **SVN users**:

\`htpasswd -cmd /home/user/directory/repository/conf/auth username

8. Access the svn using link [http://domain.com/svn\`](http://domain.com/svn`)
