[viewvc-users] I'm trying to get viewvc to work on my new centos server...

without a lot of luck.

I have the following [temporary] set up for apache:

ScriptAlias /viewvc /var/www/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi
ScriptAlias /query /var/www/cgi-bin/query.cgi

Alias /viewvc-static /var/www/viewvc

<Location /viewvc>
       Options +ExecCGI
</Location>

<Location /query>
       Options +ExecCGI
</Location>

<Directory /var/www/viewvc>
     Allow from all
</Directory>

#<IfModule mod_auth_basic.c>
#    <Location "/viewvc">
#                AuthType Basic
#                AuthName "Source Repository"
#                AuthUserFile /usr/local/viewvc-1.0.7/passwords
#                AuthGroupFile /usr/local/viewvc-1.0.7/groups
#                Require group viewvc
#    </Location>
#</IfModule>

Eventually I plan to have some security here, but I'm just setting 
things up for now.

I have /etc/viewvc/viewvc.conf set up with the following (I've omitted 
all comments and options not included):

root_parents = /home/svn/Subversion : svn
default_root = svn
address = [email protected]
svn = /usr/bin/svn
diff = /usr/bin/diff
root_as_url_component = 1

When I hit the viewvc page, I see a repository named "db" which I don't 
define anywhere.  Since I see my email address on the page I believe 
viewvc is getting to /etc/viewvc/viewvc.conf but it doesn't seem to be 
doing anything useful otherwise.

I installed viewvc using yum the version number is 1.1.15.

Any clues as to what I'm doing wrong?

Best,

Dick Munroe
