Permission denied Error between two mount point

Masoom · 10-12-2015, 01:07 AM

Hi,
I need to copy or move my xyz.tar.gz file from /opt mount point to /home mount point through "oracle" user, I received permission denied error. /home mount point belongs to "root" user while /opt mount point belongs to "oracle" user. I am working in Red Hat 4.8.
Regards.

1. I think your problem is that you shouldn't move it to /home, you need to move it to /home/<someuser> (prob oracle?)
2. Just FYI RHEL4.x is almost out of Extended Support https://access.redhat.com/support/po...pdates/errata/

yes! /home captured by the root user , oracle user is not allowed to move its any file to /home

Thanks I was going wrong, actually /home mount point does not allow then I created a directory in /home/backup so my problem solved
