copied!<p>I got WebSVN authentication working with VisualSVN server, albeit with a lot of hacking/trial-error customization of my own.</p> <p>Here's how I did it:</p> <ol> <li><p>If you haven't already, install PHP manually by downloading the zip file and going through the online php manual install instructions. I installed PHP to C:\PHP</p></li> <li><p>Extract the websvn folder to C:\Program Files\VisualSVN Server\htdocs\</p></li> <li><p>Go through the steps of configuring the websvn directory, i.e. rename configdist.php to config, etc. My repositories were located in C:\SVNRepositories, so to configure the authentication file, I set the config.php line so: $config->useAuthenticationFile('C:/SVNRepositories/authz'); // Global access file</p></li> <li><p>Add the following to C:\Program Files\VisualSVN Server\conf\httpd-custom.conf : </p></li> </ol> <pre> # For PHP 5 do something like this: LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php # configure the path to php.ini PHPIniDir "C:/php" <IfModule dir_module> DirectoryIndex index.html index.php </IfModule> <Location /websvn/> Options FollowSymLinks AuthType Basic AuthName "Subversion Repository" Require valid-user AuthUserFile "C:/SVNRepositories/htpasswd" AuthzSVNAccessFile "C:/SVNRepositories/authz" SVNListParentPath on SVNParentPath "C:/SVNRepositories/" </Location> </pre> <p>This worked for me, and websvn will only show those directories that are authorized for a given user. Note that in order for it to work right, you have to provide "Main Level" access to everybody, and then disable access to certain sub-directories for certain users. For example, I have one user who doesn't have main level access, but does have access to a sub-level. Unfortunately, this person can't see anything in websvn, even if he links directly to filedetails.php for a file he's authorized to see. In my case it's not a big deal because I don't want him accessing websvn anyway, but it's something you'll want to know.</p> <p>Also, this sets the server up for an ssl connection, so once you've set it up, the address will be and https:// address, not the regular http://.</p>
