I'm the next one who has the problem of creating just empty folders by using svnmanager.
I read all the threads here but every user had further problems too.
In my case i have no further problem (except the dumping, but thats not intresting for me at the moment) Svnmanager gives me no failure on creating a new repository.
Another problem (maybe the same cause) is on creating new users. They will not write to the htpasswd-file but will write to the database. If i give the users a permisssion for specific repos the accessfile will be updated.
If i create a repo with "svnadmin create path", append the user manually to the htpasswd and edit the accessfile with the permission i can access via https (apacheconfig) to the repo and can do the normal svn stuff on it. So there's no false dav_svn configuration.

Here is my config.php file:
//Shell command's
$htpassword_cmd = "/usr/bin/htpasswd";
$svn_cmd = "/usr/bin/svn";
$svnadmin_cmd = "/usr/bin/svnadmin";
//Subversion locations
$svn_repos_loc = "/srv/lib/svn/repos";
$svn_passwd_file = "/srv/lib/svn/.htpasswd";
$svn_access_file = "/srv/lib/svn/accessfile";
All files exist and have the right permissions (user:group www-data:www-data)
The Host system is a ubuntu dapper drake ServerEdition
Can you give me a hint or a solution for this problem. Is there a logfile from svnmanager which i can check?
Thanks in advance

Hello again
I had a look on apaches error.log and found the messages
"sh /svnadmin: no such file or directory"
after i wanted to create a new repository.
I think there is a existing configuration problem in php::pear on my system but i don't know where to look. can you give me a hint?
The files svnadmin and htpasswd are existing and the path in config.php is correct.
Thanks in advance

Okay, i found a solution for the problem.
It's the php safe_mode who restricts the execution of svnmanager. But i wont set it to off. Is there a possible workaround for this?
