Hi guys, i have followed this guide for setting up a subversion(svn) server and i cannot seem to access any repositries that i have creates and imported from a windows based svn repositry.
In the past, i installed a windows app called visual SVN that allows me to run a svn server on a windows machine. i had lots of repositries i made for it with many projects in it and now i want to migrate all these into my ubuntu server.
i followed this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/subversion.html And succesfuly installed svn, added a user and configured the apache 2 config file with this:
I also simply moved my Repositry(from my windows machine) folder into that svn path of /windows/mediahdd1.
i first created a dummy repositry using the same guide i linked above and it creates exactly the same folders and files that i saw inside my own windows repositry, so i assumed that i can easily import my previous repositry folder and should work.
Anyways the main issue i am having is i cant access my svn server from another machine using the http:// or https:// protocol.
i am able to boot up a putty session and access it using this svn co file:///windows/mediahdd1/Repositories/Spring and it returns me what appears to be a list of files related to my project.
How can i access this remotely? do i need to run svn or is it running? the guide doesnt explain how to run the svn server, all it states is how to install, create a repo, create users and different protocols you can use to access it but how do you access it remotely from say tortoise svn? the http link doesnt work and thats what i normally use to access a svn repo from tortois or another svn client.
Any advice?
Do i need to change port? what is the default port for svn? cheers in advance
