Yes that means that svnadmin command is failing (as you detailed in your
previous post). Given that it is not a permissions issue we'll have to
look further. Open:

kforge/plugin/svn.py

and go to line 99:

{{{
         if os.system(cmd):
             raise Exception('svnadmin create error: %s' % cmd)
}}}

replace this with:

{{{
         import commands
         status, output = commands.getstatusoutput(cmd)
         if status:
             raise Exception('svnadmin create error on %s: %s' % (cmd,
output))
}}}

Now try running it again and see what error message you get.

I've taken a look and it is difficult to say what is wrong. Have you
tried accessing the media files (css etc) directly (do view source on
that web page to see where the url they are being loaded from).
