subversion: svn_load_dirs script gives permission denied errors.
I am playing around with the cvs version drupal, so I have created a
subversion repository to put my various mods in. This seems to be working
fine.
However, I am trying to follow the instructions given in the subversion
documentation to update the version of my "vendor" branch (ie the one which
is holding the snapshots of drupals cvs files) and svn_load_dirs tells me I
have a permissions problem. Here is the (relatively brief) output from the
run. I have checked the permissions of the local files - they are all owned
by me - the permissions of the files on the server(as seen from the file
system as opposed to subversion) are all owned by svn (which is the owner
that runs the svnserve process from ident).
What is wrong?
