Hi,
I have svn setup and working fine for authentication with password file.
But I am not able to get it working with LDAP.
Even if I give correct password, the prompt for password continues again and
again. Kindly help me to know what I am missing. Nothing is printed in the
If it prompts for password again it was clear that the password does
not match with the one stored in the authenticator. Please refer to
following directives and verify if you need to use them in your
configuration:
AuthBasicProvider
AuthLDAPEnabled
In addition, verify the apache version you use. If it is apache 2.2,
please be aware that the module mod_auth_ldap has been renamed as
mod_authnz_ldap. See if you have to use any other directives specific
to this version.
You can refer to following links and see if it helps:

Also do not miss to see the error_log file which may have an interesting clue.
# LDAP Authentication & Authorization is final; do not check other databases
AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off
If this is off and if userid/passwd not exists in LDAP, the
authentication would fall back to passwd based authentication.
