This isn't a subversion issue. The /var/svn directory probably doesn't exist or you don't have write access there at your operating system level.

Start by creating the repository somewhere that you have write permission. Macs go very far out of their way to keep you from learning simple things like that, but it's not impossible. If you want to follow your book literally, you might, as the system administrator, create the /var/svn directory, and give ownership to yourself.
