I am trying to set up a SVN environment. I have installed collabnet svn 1.7.5 version.

If I put the below in httpd.conf by downloading those .so files

LoadModule ldap_module opt/CollabNet_Subversion/modules/mod_ldap.so
LoadModule authnz_ldap_module opt/CollabNet_Subversion/modules/mod_authnz_ldap.so

The server restarts and when I create a repo it says 

svnrepo -r sample -d "testing" -m -l ldap -g -e
INFO: CollabNet Subversion 1.7.5-1


INFO: Creating repository 'sample' in '/opt/CollabNetSVN/repositories'....

httpd: Syntax error on line 56 of etc/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/conf/httpd.conf: module authnz_ldap_module is built-in and can't be loaded

  1. If I put this in httpd.conf 

    LoadModule ldap_module modules/mod_ldap.so
LoadModule authnz_ldap_module modules/mod_authnz_ldap.so

    httpd: Syntax error on line 56 of /etc/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/conf/httpd.conf: modules cannot be found.

  2. if I do not load these modules in httpd.conf the server does not start with the ldap alias

I am not sure where it is failing. Help is very much appreciated

I would recommend using SVN Edge:

https://ctf.open.collab.net/sf/projects/svnedge/

It gives you everything you need include a web UI for configuring and managing the server making this stuff much easier. For LDAP, you can just fill out your configuration in a web form and it manages adding all of the right directives.

In this case, I believe at least some of these modules are compiled statically into httpd so you do not need a LoadModule statement as there is no .so file provided. I believe you can run this to see which modules are compiled in:

$ /opt/CollabNet_Subversion/bin/httpd -l

That said, I would recommend using SVN Edge which makes this all easier to manage plus it includes built in updates via web UI so you can stay up to date easily.
