svn: E200031: sqlite[S8]: attempt to write a readonly database

Environment:

Ubuntu 16.04

SVN 

IntelliJ

Problem:

Permission issues, because of file ownership

when svn update using IntelliJ tool it shows error message like "SVN E200031: sqlite[S8]: attempt to write a readonly database"

• Same error for grant permission the following command
  (I think another file is related with this. like "rep-cache.db")

>> sudo chmod 777 *

• stackoverflow similar issue thread said "clean up svn"

>> sudo svn clean

• But, It doesn't work with me

Solution:

Grant ownership to "specific user (me)".

(Its gonna get permission to handle it)

>> sudo chown -R <user>:<user> "SVN root path"/*

do it 

at the result: 

Other opinions at StackOverFlow:

1. Find "rep-cache.db" & grant permission to it

2. run command "sudo svn cleanup"
