I guess that there is something missing in your chroot. Take a look in the
logs sshd should tell you what's going wrong.

Well you've to set up a complete virtual system resisting in a directory
in your normal enviroment. Normaly you only put really really needed files
in a chroot enviroment so that it's really hard for a intruder to get his
malware running or cause anything else that is harmful.
Try google on how to set up a chroot enviroment.
