Notes on Win32. =============== $LastChangedDate$ Contents: ========= Some Known Issues Troubleshooting Some Known Issues: ================== Some of the following issues come up from time to time: * Problems with Apache and mod_dav_svn.so and mod_authz_svn.so: Some people are getting into trouble when starting to use Apache with mod_dav_svn.so and mod_authz_svn.so. Here are some possible solutions (you may need to try one or more of them): - Apache 2 outputs startup errors in the Event Viewer's Application log, so check the details of the error there. The following error: The Apache service named reported the following error: >>> Cannot load /Apache2/modules/mod_dav_svn.so into server: The specified module could not be found." means you need to copy the libdb42.dll and the intl.dll from the Subversion folder to your Apache\bin or Apache\modules folder. - Make sure that the Subversion Path is included in the systems %PATH% environment. - Make sure that your entries in httpd.conf are correct and remember that mod_dav_svn.so and mod_authz_svn.so should be loaded after the other mod_dav*.so modules. - Uninstall the Apache service manually by typing: apache -k uninstall Then check your httpd.conf and reinstall the service by typing: apache -k install * If your svn.exe won't run then you can try to download shfolder.dll from here: http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/Redist/5.50.4027.300/W9XNT4/EN-US/shfinst.EXE * Checklist for Win9x and Millenium users: - Make sure that the subversion path is included in your system %PATH% environment variable in Autoexec.bat. - This line must be in your Autoexec.bat file (adjust the path so it fits your system) if it's not there: SET APR_ICONV_PATH="C:\Program Files\Subversion\iconv" The installer will take care of this in a near future. - Remember that you must restart Windows if your Autoexec.bat file has changed.
