This documentation refers only to 1.4 and higher versions!
See the old documentation for earlier versions.

Getting the application

You can download the application from our sourceforge project page.

Updating from older version to 1.4

Easy to say: “It is not possible.”
The 1.4 comes with a new structure to make future updates easy. All configurations are now saved in the new “data/config.ini” file, which is created on the first start up. We recommend to save your current “include/config.inc.php” to simply copy-paste your configuration into the new setup page.

Extract & Prepare

Extract the ZIP archive and copy the complete “svnadmin” folder to your web folder. After that you can reach the application by typing “http://www.<yourhost>.com/svnadmin/” into the address bar of your browser.

File permissions

The application requires full-access to its own “data” folder.

chmod -R 777 /var/www/svnadmin/data

To manage the Subversion authorization file it is also required to set write permissions on the SVNAuthFile. (make a backup!)

Finished

Well, that’s it. Now you can open the application with the above mentioned address and setup your environment with the setup/settings page.
