what problem are you exactly having?
are you using dav_svn? if so what error message are you getting?
are you using svn via ssh? or the svnserve standalone server?

some more information would be great!

when I tried to browse the repository with TortoisseSVN. I get 'servername\repos' is not a working copy can't open file 'servername\repos\.svn\entries' The system cannot find the path specified.

I'm using mod_dav_svn within Apache. I get access denied when I tried to connect thru web browser.

well... how about posting your web_dav specific apache config here?

This is what I have in the httpd.conf

LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so

# Subversion repositories
<Location /repos>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /repos/svn
SVNIndexXSLT "http://RH4U3.metro.corp.metrostlouis.org/svnindex.xsl"

is your repository in /repos/svn or in /var/www/repos/svn ??

/repos/svn

SVNParentPath /repos/svn

that means that /repos/svn/foo would be a repository and accessed via http://<hostname>/repos/foo

these directories need to have read write permissions for the user apache2 is running as.

if /repos/svn is the repository the you either want SVNParentPath /repos to access the repository at http://<hostname>/repos/svn or SVNPath /repos/svn which will then be accessed under http://<hostname>/repos
