Subversion and apache2

[Daniel D Jones <ddjones@riddlemaster.org>]

Trying to get subversion and apache2 working:

Attempting to import from the command line and getting the following error:

svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/subversion/docs'
svn: PROPFIND of '/subversion/docs': 403 Forbidden 


Error log on the server shows:

[Mon Sep 04 11:01:28 2006] [error] [client 192.168.2.12] Failed to load the 
AuthzSVNAccessFile: /etc/apache2/auth-files/public-svn-authzfile:5: Option 
must end with ':' or '='

[Mon Sep 04 11:01:31 2006] [error] [client 192.168.2.12] Failed to load the 
AuthzSVNAccessFile: /etc/apache2/auth-files/public-svn-authzfile:5: Option

denied: 'ddjones' PROPFIND docs:/


apache2 virtual host config has the following line:

AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/apache2/auth-files/public-svn-authzfile


I've absolutely verified that the path and file name are correct (catting the 
above line via copy and paste spits out the file contents)

perms are:

-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data 164 2006-09-04 10:41 public-svn-authzfile

No clue where to go from here.  Google has been most unhelpful.  Little help?
