I'd also guess you're having a permission problem. Have you checked the log 
file for entries from jk_chrootsh? Those entries are very informative and 
usually give the precise reason why jk_chrootsh didn't allow changing to the 
chroot directory. If jailkit messages don't give you the reason, check you log 
files for any "error" or "denied" messages from your SSH daemon.

Have you forgotten to add a user or group to JAILDIR/etc/passwd or 
JAILDIR/etc/group? This might happen if you've decided to "add" users manually 
to the jail directory.
Does "whoami" have all required libraries? Execute "ldd /bin/whoami" and check 
if those libraries (.so) exist in the chroot directory (JAILDIR/lib/).
