After setting up the repo and relocating the working copy, unfortunately, it doesn't work; editing a page gives the error: + +Error: no element found at line 3, column 0, byte 28 at /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.1/darwin-multi-2level/XML/Parser.pm line 187 + +I think this is because, despite a SetEnv directive in the apache configuration, the CGI wrapper is expunging SVN_SSH from the environment (based on perusing the source of Wrapper.pm and looking at "envsave" there at the top). Is this the case? --Glenn + +That seems likely.
