title: Configuring SVN server on Apache on Ubuntu 12.04
body: <p>I'm trying to access an existing Subversion server over HTTP. My <code>dav_svn.conf</code> file looks like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;Location /svn&gt;
      DAV svn
      SVNParentPath /home/svn/repos
      SVNListParentPath on
      AuthType Basic
      AuthName "Restricted Access"
      AuthUserFile /home/svn/passwdfile
      Require valid-user
      AuthzSVNAccessFile /home/svn/accessfile
  &lt;/Location&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when I'm trying to access "some-site/svn", I'm getting the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The requested URL /svn/ was not found on this server.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>The Apache error log shows "file does not exist: /var/www/svn"</p>
  
  <p>How do I resolve this?</p>
