I've never set up an SVN server, however, the combination of apache, new
volumes and permission denied problems makes me think it might be an
SELinux denial.
I assume you've got SELinux running, and set to Enforcing. When you
created the new volume, did you relabel the contents so they have the
appropriate SELinux attributes such that they can be served out via
apache? Check your /var/log/audit/audit.log, or run:
ausearch -m avc -ts today
to see today's SElinux denials.
