Help Needed : OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

stephensmith

I am installing on Bluehost linux sentos server and getting the following error that is aborting the installation. Seems to be a permissions problem. I am new to linux, but have managed to overcome permissions in /tmp, UTF-8 issues and this seems to be the final hurdle. I have also set the python directories for root ownership and 777. Does Anybody have any ideas? help much appreciated :)

    It looks like you have /tmp or ($TMPDIR) locked down so that nothing can execute from there.

    Unfortunately the installer runs an engine check from a temporary copy before installing.

    You can override the temporary directory that is used, so that it is on a partition where executables are allowed.

    export TMPDIR=<temporary directory where executables are allowed>

    ./install.sh

    I am running into the same issue. What install.sh file would this be? And would it be configured just as you indicate?

    export TMPDIR=<temporary directory where executables are allowed>
