Incorrect file permissions prohibiting system operations

Problem Copied

When the following error is encountered when trying to Apply Changes on the Opsview UI:

 [ERR] DirectDataObject exited with error: <class 'PermissionError'> [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/opt/opsview/monitoringscripts/uploaded/plugins/plugins.d/check_mssql_database.py.orig'

Possible cause(s) Copied

The possible cause of this is having a permission error, specifically an ownership error on this directory:

/opt/opsview/monitoringscripts/uploaded/plugins/plugins.d/

Possible solution(s) Copied

To resolve the error, change the ownership of the directory

/opt/opsview/monitoringscripts/uploaded/plugins/plugins.d/

is set to opsview:opsview

Also move the file to a different location, such as /var/tmp, and rerun the Apply Changes.
