Permissions issue with webserver and svn
Update: Please anybody can give some help ?

I've an issue with files ownerships.

I have a drupal website and the "files" folder needs to be owned by "www-data" in order to let the users to upload files with php.

However I'm now using svn and I need all folders and files to be owned by my ubuntu user in order to work.

Files have 775 permissions, so both user and group have full access to the files.

I've added my ubuntu user to www-data group but it still doesn't work. I dunno why.
I've tried to change the group to my ubuntu user group but it still doesn't work.

I've also tried to set my ubuntu user as owner, and www-data as group, but in this case the webserver php script cannot anymore upload files into the folder (and this is again strange because the group has full privilegies).

thanks

cgconfigparser

CGCONFIGPARSER(8)						 libcgroup Manual						 CGCONFIGPARSER(8)

NAME

       cgconfigparser - setup control group file system

SYNOPSIS

       cgconfigparser [-h] [-l <filename>] [-L <directory>] [...]

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      Displays help.

       -l, --load=FILE
	      Parses  the  control  groups  configuration  file Sets up the control group file system defined by the configuration file and mounts
	      mount points defined by the configuration file.  The format of the file is described in cgconfig.conf. This option can be used  mul-
	      tiple times and can be mixed with -L option.

       -L, --load-directory=DIR
	      Finds  all  files in given directory and parses them in alphabetical order like they were specified by -l option. This option can be
	      used multiple times and can be mixed with -l option.

       -a <agid>:<auid>
	      defines the default owner of the rest of the defined control group's files. These users are allowed to set subsystem parameters  and
	      create subgroups.  The default value is the same as has the parent cgroup.

       -d, --dperm=mode
	      sets the default permissions of a control groups directory.  The permissions needs to be specified as octal numbers e.g.	-d 775.

       -f, --fperm=mode
	      sets  the default permissions of the control group files.  The permissions needs to be specified as octal numbers e.g.  -f 775.  The
	      value is not used as given because the current owner's permissions are used as an umask (so 777 will set group  and  others  permis-
	      sions to the owners permissions).

       -s, --tperm=mode
	      sets the default permissions of the control group tasks files.  The permissions needs to be specified as octal numbers e.g.  -f 775.
	      The value is not used as given because the current owner's permissions are used as an umask (so 777 will set group and  others  per-
	      missions to the owners permissions).

       -t <tuid>:<tgid>
	      defines  the default owner of tasks file of the defined control group. I.e. this user and members of this group have write access to
	      the file.
