Bug 9843

Well, the line for PID should probably be
PIDFile=/var/run/svnserve.pid
to avoid messing with folder creation and such, the previous one was just an attempt to do ir similarly to other .service

Hi,

With subversion-1.7.9-4mga (available on http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/ ) for Cauldron, this seems to work fine. Can you test it?

Regards,

Yes, it's fixed now, thanks.

If not, would an update on such a problem be allowed?

Not sure how I missed it when testing before. Probably did, but got sidetracked
by the problem getting httpd to start, and forgot to report it.

In order to get svnserve.service to start, had to mkdir /run/svnserve,
so it looks like it should have a file in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/ with
d /run/svnserve  755 root root

Yes, an update to fix the bug would be allowed.

Submitted as an update to Mageia 3 core/updates_testing to http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/ . If and once it builds, please test:

Commit: 448230 | shlomif | Fix MGA#9843 - make svnserve systemd task start properly.
Package submitted!

Shlomi, you're supposed to be following
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Updates_policy#Maintainer_.28or_any_interested_packager.29

Requires writing an advisory with the list of srpms, rpms, and
a description of what's been changed, and then assigning to the
qa-bugs address.

I have uploaded a patched/updated package for Mageia 3.

You can test this by running «systemctl start svnserve.service» from the
command line, and making sure the svnservice is running in a task manager
(such as ps auxwwwwwwwwwww, htop, top or KDE's Ctrl+Esc).
Also make sure that svn in general is working by running the following
command:

    svn co svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk

Suggested advisotry:
========================

Updated Subversion pacakges to fix the svnserve startup:

Carlos Vives reported that the "svnserve systemd service is unable to start",
and gave a solution. This solution was implemented in these updates.
