Resolving The Problem

Ensure the user ID that starts Application Server (or the user ID specified in the Run As User) has the write and read permission for the following directory and all its files and sub-directories:


    InstallRoot/config/temp

For example: You can use the UNIX® command to grant the write and execute permission to everyone on InstallRoot/config/temp:

    $ chmod -R a+wr InstallRoot/config/temp

(Please check with your UNIX System Administrator for more instructions on setting the right permission for your UNIX environment).
