mkdir File::Path: Permission denied

[JoyceBabu]

When running repositor --repo=reponame --init as a non root user, I am getting the error

mkdir File::Path: Permission denied at /usr/local/share/perl/5.20.2/Rex/Repositorio/Repository/Apt.pm line 421.
The repositor user has read/write permission on the /var/www/repo directory. The Yum repository initialization is working correctly.
