Cause
During the installation, RSASecurity directory is created with wrong permissions so it denies access to the installation user and it fails with Permission Denied Error.
Resolution
- As a root, on the webtier server, navigate to where the RSASecurity Directory is created, by default in /opt.
- Run the following command:
chown -R username:username RSASecuritySuch that you replace username with the username of the installer user.
- Run the Webtier installer again.
