I have a relatively recent installation of Webmin on Ubuntu, with SVN Admin installed. This is the first repository I need to create, existing ones were imported with SVN and I found a way to make them show up properly in SVN Admin. Don't remember how, it was a few months ago.
I am creating a new repository and am getting the following message:
Are the 'SVN Admin' configvalues settings correct ?
It appears the repository is created, however ownership user 0 group 0. the others are 33/33. I have looked throughout my config files and can't find anywhere I've designed user csvn:csvn anywhere, nor does it sound familiar.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the reply, but I don't know where Default SVN-User or Default SVN-Group is. I looked in your module config and in /etc/subversion on my server.

That seems to work, thanks. I am using the standard ubuntu package for svn, which uses www-data as the user/group. Seems like this should be a configuration item.

Hi Robbrandt.
It's allready OK. On our Company, we use an SVN Distribution from CollabNet. CollabNet use a default Group n' User of "csvn".
Check your Default SVN-User and Default SVN-Group.
If you cannot change the names then change the names in the script "save_repos.cgi" on line 263.
Please let me informed.

Thanks for the reply, but I don't know where Default SVN-User or Default SVN-Group is. I looked in your module config and in /etc/subversion on my server.
Go to "root directory" of your repositories and type the "ls -l" command on your shell.
Then you find the user and group in the listing.
Otherwise when you make first steps of SVN, create a user called "csvn" and a group "csvn". Then put the user csvn in this group.

That seems to work, thanks. I am using the standard ubuntu package for svn, which uses www-data as the user/group. Seems like this should be a configuration item.
