Unable to update "Subversion HTTP Server URL" field in admin settings

While configuring the admin settings, I entered “Subversion HTTP Server URL” as “http://127.0.0.1:10020/svn”. But after sometime found that this field should be configured as “http://localhost:8090”. So now I updated this value in the input field and clicked “Generate apache config”. As soon as I click that button, a green banner says that update is done successully. But when I check this again, it was not saved, so when I looked at the logs I found some permission error like this

To solve this, as specified in the documents rhodecode user , I tried to set apache run username as ‘rhodecode’ but that fails and I get an error like “Bad user rhodecode”. How can I solve this anyone help me?

Until now, I am able to do all other actions like adding repo, users, groups, etc no problem there but I am unable to checkout a repo successfully!!!
