The ownership of a file may only be altered by a super-user

chown -R www:www sandbox/
chown: sandbox//conf/authz: Operation not permitted
chown: sandbox//conf/passwd: Operation not permitted
chown: sandbox//conf/svnserve.conf: Operation not permitted
chown: sandbox//conf: Operation not permitted
chown: sandbox//dav/activities.dir: Operation not permitted
chown: sandbox//dav/activities.pag: Operation not permitted

->

sudo chown -R www:www sandbox/

The ownership of a file may only be altered by a super-user for obvious
     security reasons.
