svn stopped working in my Mac after upgrade to Yosemite. I know there is a very similar question with no answer,
Segmentation fault: 11 in SVN checkout, however I've spent pretty much the whole day with this and I'm adding more information on the issue. I'm hoping somebody maybe somebody can help... I'm really stuck. I cannot upgrade svn and I'm planning to go back to Mavericks.
The error I get:
svn update
Segmentation fault: 11
I was already working with svn from a binary I compiled myself (although not so familiar with C). There was some months ago an update of Xcode that removed the old legacy svn 1.6.
This time with Yosemite, when I've tried to compile it again, I've seen that the os update has modified apache and APR and the sources do not compile anymore (or at least that's my guess from the error I get):
/bin/sh /mnt/netzima/icaria/apps/subversion-1.6.6/libtool --tag=CC --silent --mode=compile gcc -DDARWIN -DSIGPROCMASK_SETS_THREAD_MASK -no-cpp-precomp -g -O2 -g -O2 -I/usr/include/apache2 -I./subversion/include -I./subversion -I/usr/local/apr/include/apr-1 -I/usr/local/apr-util/include/apr-1 -I/opt/local/include/neon -o subversion/mod_authz_svn/mod_authz_svn.lo -c subversion/mod_authz_svn/mod_authz_svn.c
subversion/mod_authz_svn/mod_authz_svn.c:448:9: error: member reference base type 'char' is not a structure or union
ap_log_rerror(file, line, level, 0, r,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've downloaded and make install the following:
- libtool version 2.4.2
- autoconf version 2.69
- automake version 1.14
- apr version 1.3.12
- apr-util version 1.3.12
- apache version 2.2.29
I was hoping that those versions would be compatible with svn 1.6.6, since, as I've mentioned before, my guess was that it is not compatible anymore to the newest versions.
In other to use those packages that I've downloaded, I had to add options to the configure command. For apr-util, I had to configure like this:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apr-util --with-apr=/usr/local/apr
As for apache:
./configure --with-apr=/usr/local/apr --with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr-util --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --enable-dav --enable-so
And finally svn:
./configure --with-apr=/usr/local/apr --with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr-util --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --enable-maintainer-mode
This way at least svn compiles (I guess that proves it is getting the right versions). But it does not work, I get the same segmentation fault. I've added the /usr/local/... directories to my path just to be sure, although I'd guess svn puts all the library it needs in an accesible directory (I think it is /usr/local/bin, which was already in my path).
I have no idea how to go from here. I've tried to compile with debug to see if I can get a pointer to the segmentation fault, a core dump or something like that, with no success...
Any help would be much appreciated!
And thanks anyway.
