Do you have any error on the Jonas output ?
What do you mean, own by root ?
- is it the root user of your system ?
- is it the libresource root user ?
What kind of security did you assign to the svn repository in Libresource ?
- users allow to read ?
- users allow to commit ?
Is your SVN using the libresource generated file ?
Are the generated file ok ?
Sorry to ask you so many questions, but otherwise I can't help much.
