title: SVN permission denied - txn-current-lock
body: <p>I have just set up svn on my ubuntu server. I have a my user I can login to. The problem is that whenever I try to make a change on the file structure I get a permission denied error. </p>
  
  <pre>
  Can't open file '/var/www-svn/db/txn-current-lock':
  Permission denied
  </pre>
  
  <p>My repo is in <strong>/var/www-svn</strong> and the permission on that folder is <code>drwxr-xr-x</code> for user AND group <strong>svn</strong> (I am bad with permissions so I don't know if that's correct). My user that I log in to on svn is in the svn group, yet I cant change the file structure. <strong>What am I doing wrong?</strong> It works if I change the user and group of the folder to my user that I login too.</p>
  
  <p>In svnserve.conf, <em>anon-access</em> is set to <em>none</em> and <em>auth-access</em> is set to <em>write</em>.</p>
  
  <p>(I changed the owner of /var/www-svn by typing <code>sudo chown -R svn:svn www-svn</code> inside /var directory.)</p>
