Invalid user apache

[ubila]

Hi,
Im trying to change the ownership of my svn folder to apache


sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/lib/svn/repo1This is returning the error:

chown: invalid user: 'apache:apache'

---

I have apache2 installed and up to date.
Running ubuntu server

Any help would be appreciated :)
Cheers!

Try:


sudo chown -R apache /var/lib/svn/repo1

Just noticed my error as it's www-data. Apologies
