Tried to install the latest apache 2.4 x64 build with VC11. The installation generally works as specified. But I'm not able to load the svn modules. The error message is ...

The Apache service named  reported the following error:
>>> httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 181 of .../Apache24/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_dav_svn.so into server: The specified module could not be found.

httpd-2.4.17-x64-vc11.zip
mod_svn-1.9.2-ap24-x64.zip

Interesting is that when I change something with notepad directly within the svn libs, the error message says something different. With other words ... the Apache finds the the modules and the error message is missleading.

Hi Niels,

did you follow the readme zile in the zip? Do you load all of the modules? Did you extract all the files from the mod_svn-1.9.2-ap24-x64.zip into e.g. C:\Apache24 ?

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so

LoadModule auth_digest_module modules/mod_auth_digest.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so


I just downloaded the two zips, unpacked them to C:\ and ran it successfully

Hey Mario,
thank you for your fast response. "My" installation seems to be working now ... it seems as if I missed one of the svn.dlls when i copied them over. I've done the whole process again and now it works.

I've still problems when accessing the repository via http and tortoise. It raises the following message "unexpected HTTP status 400 'bad request (forbidden or unknown protocol)' on ...". But that's a different issue.

Thank you again

it might help if you cold post the relevant config part. So I can reproduce your issue and help.
