I am receiving errors when I try to import files into a repository.

svn import svn.test https://www.grstaff.net:8500/svn/svn.test -m "test import"
[authenticate]
svn: MKACTIVITY of '/svn/svn.test/!svn/act/0bdd7457-16e0-413b-839e-c2e306b9b2aa': 403 Forbidden (https://www.grstaff.net:8500)

I know the authentication is working because i get an authorization failed if i type in the incorrect password:

svn import svn.test https://www.grstaff.net:8500/svn/svn.test -m "test import"
[use wrong password]
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/svn.test'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/svn.test': authorization failed (https://www.grstaff.net:8500)

www-data is the apache user, the permissions look good (i've put them at 0777 since the paste, just to be sure).

ls -al /var/
drwxrwsr-x  4 www-data www-data 4096 2008-04-18 11:06 svn

ls -al /var/svn/

# DefaultType is the default MIME type the server will use for a document
# if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.
# If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is

# or images, you may want to use "application/octet-stream" instead to
# keep browsers from trying to display binary files as though they are

# ErrorLog: The location of the error log file.

# ServerTokens
# This directive configures what you return as the Server HTTP response
# Header. The default is 'Full' which sends information about the OS-Type
# and compiled in modules.
# Set to one of:  Full | OS | Minor | Minimal | Major | Prod
# where Full conveys the most information, and Prod the least.
#

#
# Optionally add a line containing the server version and virtual host
# name to server-generated pages (internal error documents, FTP directory
# listings, mod_status and mod_info output etc., but not CGI generated
# documents or custom error documents).
# Set to "EMail" to also include a mailto: link to the ServerAdmin.
# Set to one of:  On | Off | EMail
#
ServerSignature On



#
# Customizable error responses come in three flavors:
# 1) plain text 2) local redirects 3) external redirects
#
# Some examples:
#ErrorDocument 500 "The server made a boo boo."
#ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html
#ErrorDocument 404 "/cgi-bin/missing_handler.pl"
#ErrorDocument 402 http://www.example.com/subscription_info.html
#

#
# Putting this all together, we can internationalize error responses.
#
# We use Alias to redirect any /error/HTTP_<error>.html.var response to
# our collection of by-error message multi-language collections.  We use
# includes to substitute the appropriate text.
#
# You can modify the messages' appearance without changing any of the
# default HTTP_<error>.html.var files by adding the line:
#
#   Alias /error/include/ "/your/include/path/"
#
# which allows you to create your own set of files by starting with the
# /usr/share/apache2/error/include/ files and copying them to /your/include/path/,
# even on a per-VirtualHost basis.  The default include files will display
# your Apache version number and your ServerAdmin email address regardless
# of the setting of ServerSignature.
#
# The internationalized error documents require mod_alias, mod_include
# and mod_negotiation.  To activate them, uncomment the following 30 lines.
