Step 1. Install apache [here 2.0.63] as
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --with-port=2080 --enable-dav --enable-dav-fs --enable-rewrite --enable-so
make
make install
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start
/* make sure these packages are already installed in your system. Autoconf, libtool, phython 2, libxml, zlib, neon */
Install all packages from synaptic. Neon instructions can be get from
https://twiki.grid.iu.edu/twiki/bin/view/VO/SubversionClientSetup#Installing_Neon

./configure --with-apr=/usr/local/apache2 --with-apr-util=/usr/local/apache2
make
make install
Step 3. Make a repository
cd /var/
mkdir -p repo/source/
svnadmin create /var/repo/source
Step 4. Configure apache
Stop and edit http.conf file as
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl stop
vi /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
