Edit c: svn repos conf svnserveconf, ment these lines and change anon-access to none: anon-access = none auth-access = write password-db = passwd realm = my subversion. Not authorized to open root of edit operation after a little search on google i determined the issue was that i didn t have a anon-access=none line in my svnserveconf file.

Now let s open up svnserveconf: vim svnserveconf you ll want to ment the following (press i to enter insert mode to edit): anon-access = read.
