I dunno why you had this confguration for ViewVC 1.0.6.  The "root_parents"
configuration item has always expected a comma-separated list of root
parents, where each parent was "<root_parent_path> : <vc-system>" (and
vc-system was either "svn" or "cvs").

Further, svn_roots has always taken items of the form "<rootname> :
<rootpath>", whereas above you don't show a colon in yours.

If /svn/repos is itself a repository, then you should have:

   svn_roots = SVNRepo : /svn/repos
   root_parents =

If /svn/repos is a directory in which many repositories may be found, you
should have:

   svn_roots =
   root_parents = /svn/repos : svn
