Force user to authenticate on commit
Added by Justyn Bell over 8 years ago
I know this should be possible, but as of now, I can commit to my SVN repository using Redmine without any authentication... which I don't want. What I would like (and how I've seen it done) is a user is prompted for his/her username, and subsequently password. I've tried tweaking just about everything, so this is my last hope.
Here are the relevant parts of my config files:
apache2.conf:
PerlLoadModule Apache::Redmine <Location /svn> DAV svn SVNParentPath /var/www/redmine-svn Options FollowSymLinks #Order deny,allow #Deny from all Require valid-user Satisfy any # If a client tries to svn update which involves updating many files, # the update request might result in an error Server sent unexpected # return value (413 Request Entity Too Large) in response to REPORT # request,because the size of the update request exceeds the limit # allowed by the server. You can avoid this error by disabling the # request size limit by adding the line LimitXMLRequestBody 0 # between the <Location...> and </Location> lines. LimitXMLRequestBody 0 # Only check Authentication for root path, nor again for recursive # folder. # Redmine core does only permit access on repository level, so this # doesn't hurt security. On the other hand it does boost performance # a lot! SVNPathAuthz on PerlAccessHandler Apache::Authn::Redmine::access_handler PerlAuthenHandler Apache::Authn::Redmine::authen_handler AuthType Basic AuthName "Redmine SVN Repository" #read-only access <Limit GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT> Require valid-user Allow from localhost # Allow from another-ip Satisfy any </Limit> # write access <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT> #Require all denied Require valid-user </LimitExcept> ## for mysql RedmineDSN "DBI:mysql:database=redmine_default;host=localhost" RedmineDbUser "redmine" RedmineDbPass "----------" </Location>
sites-enabled/000-default.conf:
<VirtualHost *:80> # The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that # the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating # redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName # specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to # match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this # value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless. # However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly. #ServerName www.example.com ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/html # Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn, # error, crit, alert, emerg. # It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular # modules, e.g. #LogLevel info ssl:warn ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined <Directory /var/www/html/redmine> RailsBaseURI /redmine PassengerResolveSymlinksInDocumentRoot on </Directory> # For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are # enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to # include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the # following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only # after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf". #Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf </VirtualHost>
I have uncommented
store-passwords = no store-auth-creds = no
in /etc/subversion/config, and deleted the svn.simple saved credentials on my local machine.
Hopefully this is a simple problem because I've spent far too much time on it.
Thanks in advance.

I forgot to mention that this manifests itself as commits in the repository tab of Redmine with nothing under the "author" column. I need this user authentication because the code base we're working on sits on a single machine with multiple users committing. I'd like them to be forced to enter their credentials so I know who the authors of certain commits are.
