SVN with APACHE on AIX - cannot load module mod_dav_svn.so

Question

I'hve installed subversion and apache on my AIX server. Each one is running fine separately. But when I try to launch apache with svn libraries included I got this error:

httpd: Syntax error on line 523 of /opt/freeware/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 5 of /opt/freeware/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-subversion.conf: Cannot load /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so into server: rtld: 0712-001 Symbol ap_log_rerror was referenced\n from module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so(), but a runtime definition\n of the symbol was not found.\nrtld: 0712-001 Symbol dav_new_error_tag was referenced\n from module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so(), but a runtime definition\n of the symbol was not found.\nrtld: 0712-001 Symbol dav_push_error was referenced\n from module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so(), but a runtime definition\n of the symbol was not found.\nrtld: 0712-001 Symbol dav_new_error was referenced\n from module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so(), but a runtime definition\n of the symbol was not found.\nrtld: 0712-001 Symbol dav_xml_get_cdata was referenced\n from module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so(), but a runtime definition\n of the symbol was not found.\nrtld: 0712-001 Symbol dav_xmlns_add was referenced\n from module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so(), but a runtime definition\n of the symbol was not found.\nrtld: 0712-001 Symbol ap_log_perror was referenced\n from module /opt/freeware/lib/httpd/modules/mod_dav_svn.so(), but a runtime definition\n of the symbol was not found.\n\t0509-021 Additional errors occurred but are not reported.

I installed apache, subversion and mod_dav from perzl.com website: subversion-1.7.6-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm httpd-2.4.3-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm mod_dav_svn-1.7.6-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm

I'm running AIX 5.2:

uname -a: AIX mdsp16 2 5 000133DAD300

The error (line 523) is a link to the Loadmodule mod_dav_svn

Maybe the mod_dav_svn is corrupted but I dont know where to find a good version of it (I installed the mod_dav_svn rpm many times).

I didn't find the same error on the Web and start giving it up ^^ Thx for any clue.

I have the same experience as you. But I have the problem resolved by downloading a lower version of httpd -> httpd-2.2.23-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm from this site.
