Hi,
I am new to SVN and wish to setup the repository through
for one of my projects.
I am using ubuntu and installed apache2 and subversion
1.6.12. the system has apache user setup and all the
repositories are owned by apache (group apache).
I have created a passwd file using the command, "sudo
htpasswd -b /etc/subversion/svn-passwd-file bliu bepbbq".
I use svn co http://127.0.0.1/svn/bcm/trunk to checkout
the code. checkout has no issues. However when I try to
check in a modified file from bcm/trunk, I get this error,
"svn: Can't open file
'/var/lib/svn/bcm/db/txn-current-lock': Permission
denied". I was not even prompted for the passwd for the
user bliu.

what is that I am doing wrong ?
FYI, apache is not in sudoers list.
I appreciate your help.
