STEP by STEP Installing Collabnet with Subversion on UBUNTU 14.04.1

STEP by STEP Installing Collabnet 4.0.12-3944.141 with Subversion version 1.8.11-3944.141 on UBUNTU 14.04.1 LTS

Basically I just did the exact steps below to get the SVN repo up and running to a point where i can log into it.  I handed it off to other people to actually use, so thats as far as I took it.

1. Installed a "next-next-next" implementation of Ubuntu 14.04 server.  I didn't install any special packages.  Just the default install.  You could probably customize.
2. Logged in as root on the console, then ran the following command to install SSH:

   sudo apt-get install openssh-server
   

3. Create a non-root user. In this example I am using svnadministrator .  (couple of prompts for this procedure, password/user, detail, etc.)

   sudo adduser svnadministrator  
   

4. Edit permissions

   sudo visudo
   

5. Look for---> root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL and then below that put in the entry below:

   svnadministrator ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
   

6. Save your changes.
7. LOGGED OUT OF ROOT and then log in as the non-root user you created (svnadministrator in this example).
   !!!The notes for subversion says to try and do it as a non-root user, so I did.!!!

   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java  
   sudo apt-get update  
   

8. (You can change the "6" to "7" or "8" in the next command, depending on the Java version you want. SVN seemed to want 6)

   sudo apt-get install oracle-java6-installer
   

9. (Agree to terms.)

   sudo apt-get install oracle-java6-set-default
   

10. Set the home variable.

    export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-oracle/
    

11. Get the installer from http://www.collab.net/svnedge. You'll need to login in and/or create an account.
    (I downloaded it to my Windows box then SCP'd it over to my Linux box)

    tar -zxf CollabNetSubversionEdge-1.1.0_linux-x86.tar.gz
    

12. The tar.gz file is unpacked to the csvn directory.

    cd csvn  
    bin/csvn start  
    

13. (Wait a minute or so...)

 14. Once I authenticate to the default logon for it, (i can't rember what it is) I "START' the SVN service in the GUI Main page and people start using it.


==================
MOVING SVN repository.
We ran out of HD space and had to move the repo to a new HD in the same server (we couldn't expand successfully due to a LVM format volume that just wouldn't work for us.

So we added a second HD
I put it in the Machine (virutal) then booted gpart and formated it as a EXT4 format
then I booted into ubuntu and did mounted the drive.

Then logged into the repo
stop the repo
changed the file location of the repos under ADMINISTRATION-> SERVER SETTINGS -> Repository Directory  
Changed that location and then saved it.
Go to repositories -> repository list, they'll probably not be there.  Move the folders from the old location to the new location...then use the "DISCOVER"  button and they'll show back up.
thats its.
