Errors committing a new project using SVN

Hi all,

Hoping I can get some friendly advice here.  I have an account on HostingRails that currently has two add-on domains.  For the first add-on domain, I was able to check in and check out my project without a problem.  I'm using the exact same process (from what I can tell) to try and commit my code for the second domain.

Unfortunately, I'm getting the following error:

svn: Commit failed (details follow):
   svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Can't create directory '/home/[username]/svn/[domain.com]/db/transactions/7-1.txn': Permission denied
svn: MKACTIVITY of '/svn/[domain.com]/!svn/act/d1e66d78-1501-0010-9f0e-31589fa93faa': 500 Internal Server Error http://svn.[domain].com)

I'm followed all of the tutorials in regards to setting up Subversion with multiple users, Trac, and deploying add-on domains.  I'm using Aptana with the Subclipse plugin.  My process was to create my subversion repository for my second add-on domain, use Aptana to import it to my development box, modify some things, and then attempt to commit it using Aptana.

The location of the svn repository I'm using is:
http://svn.[main domain].com/svn/[second addon domain.com]/trunk

My initial suspicion is that it's a user permissions error.  However, I used this same method with my first add-on domain without any problems, so I'm  not sure what's going on.

Thanks for the assistance.

Hello,

I checked your account and I can see 2 svn repos. Can you please mention the names of the add-on domain and the svn repo in question

Rahul, you're correct.  The add-on domain and subversion repository in question are truness.com (for both).  These are the ones that are giving me issues.

The other one that you see is the one that worked fine.

Thanks

Rahul, thanks, whatever you did worked.  For my general knowledge, could you inform me of what you did?  Perhaps this will help me fix the issue myself in the future.

Thanks!

Hello,

Sorry for the late response... I have modified the permissions and ownershuip related with the SVN repo. That did the trick...

To further add... Actually svn via web-browser works with nobody ownership for the svn repo. While svn+ssh requires "user" ownership. So I have made some modificatiosn to enable both simultaneously... Also this can be done only from our end... Incase you are adding further svn repos, do let us know via support ticket.

Thanks for the additional information.  The next time I have to add an SVN repo I'll put in a ticket with you all and reference this post.

When you said that svn via web browser works, do you mean it works for everyone via reading?  Can we change that so it's just my account?

Thanks

If you have already configured authentication as per the Multi user svn tutorial, others wont be able to access your repo.
