Currently we have on repository for multiple projects. I am restructuring this so we can have an SVN repository per project.
I've been following http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/SubversionRepositoryDataTransfer.html with success but have come into a problem.
In the new repository I add my trunk, branches, and tags directory. I them attempt to move the files out of the root directory into the trunk directory. I'm able to successfully add those folders. The problem is when I try to move the files into the trunk directory. Specifically adding a file to the ./trunk level seems to fail the most:
Commit failed (details follow):
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
Looking at my apache logs I see this in the error file:

I'm not sure why it's looking for format in my error_docs directory. That directory exists but it doesn't have anything named format.
The permissions of my repo are the same as a working functional repo. So while it looks like a permissions error I dont' see where my setup fails

edit - 08/17, poking more at this issue. The current set up is:
/pickles.com/
/trunk
/branches
/tags
pickles.com/
/app
/config
etc...
I'm attempting to place the code in trunk with svn mv pickles.com/pickles.com/* pickles.com/trunk. I receive the same error with the following in my apache logs:

My svn configuration:
<location />
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /var/www/vhosts/publicsite.com/subdomains/svn
SVNListParentPath on
AuthType Basic
AuthName "svn.publicsite.com"
AuthUserFile /var/www/vhosts/publicsite.com/subdomains/svn/conf/passwd
Require valid-user
</location>
This same configuration works in another virtual host on the same server. So I wouldn't expect to be the problem. The only change is that ParentPath is on, and this is a directory of repositories instead of a single repository with many directories.
Edit - Apache is redirecting SVN to the error_docs directory
I updated the conf to act as a single repository.
The original:
SVNParentPath /var/www/vhosts/publicsite.com/subdomains/svn2
SVNListParentPath on
To single format:
SVNPath /var/www/vhosts/publicsite.com/subdomains/svn2/pickles.com
And everything functioned as expected. Turning it back to SVNParentPath and we're back to the same old problems. Now I know it has something to do with MediaTemple, Plesk, and subdomain setup.
To recap, the error I'm getting is:
Internal error: Can't open file '/var/www/vhosts/publicsite.com/subdomains/svn2/error_docs/format
I created a symlink in error_docs to ./subdomains/svn2/pickes.com/format and then the error became:
Internal error: Error opening db lockfile
This isn't a permissions error (at the level I've shown). This project has the same permission set and user as the one that worked on single-mode. Somewhere Apache is defaulting to the error_docs so SVN is looking for it's directories there instead of the url specified repository.
I've checked every httpd file I've found and can't find a reference to how the domain should handle it's subdomains.
