How to make case insensitive when authz user on Subversion

chobong · 07-01-2010, 09:53 PM

Dear All,

I'm using Centos 5.4 and Subversion 1.4.2. I use MySQL to authz user when connect to SVN. In MySQL database, I have a username 'Harry', and in the file access control, I typed username 'harry'. Now I just can login with 'harry' user, cannot with 'Harry'.

How can I check lower case on SVN before it requires authz, I tried to use AuthzForceUsernameCase Lower but apache cannot start.

Please help me!
Thank so much.

This is my subversion.conf file
<Location />
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /svn
SVNListParentPath on
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Authorization Realm"
AuthzSVNAccessFile /var/svn/svnauth

AuthMYSQLEnable on
AuthMySQLHost mydomain
AuthMySQLUser username
AuthMySQLPassword password
AuthMySQLDB db
AuthMySQLUserTable user
AuthMySQLNameField userid
AuthMySQLPasswordField passwd
AuthMySQLPwEncryption md5

Require valid-user
</Location>

I fixed this problem. I updated my subversion to 1.6 version, and 'AuthzForceUsernameCase' is fine in this case.
Anyway, thank subho.d

Hi All,

My Subversion is running fine now, but commiting is so slow

.
I checked uploading via website or ftp, they are ok for me. (about 150KB/s).
But when I commit to the server, it's just 1-5KB/s or lower. I don't understand.

Who can please let me know the reason why and how can I fix this problem.
Thank you so much!!
