I am having troubles with both dav and svn...I get the same 403 error when trying to access it. I had a fc6 server and all the configurations worked fine...I updated my server to fc8 and now I cannot get dav access. I get the same error on svn access...permission denied...I have tried several different configurations and cannot get this to work...here is the configuration...

in httpd.conf

<directory "location of dav">
dav on
<directory>

just to see if it worked and same error

in httpd.conf

<directory "location of dav">
full configuration of dav get post and all that good stuff...
</directory>

and it did not work...i am not a newbie but I am also not extremely experienced here but I cannot figure out what this is not working. I have searched the logs and all the say is...

...Get /dav/ HTTP/1.1" 403 280...

which is essentially nothing...

I have also chown apache.apache -R and I still get permission denied...I do have SELinux disabled...

no one helped me so i helped my damn self. the problem was that mod_security was blocking me from doing the whole dav thingy. I have to add a line removing services...
