First see if any other program can write to the destination.
Assuming no then I've got three ideas.
1. ls each dir going down the chain.
2. Check your quota.
3. Try turning off selinux (it's an old suggestion, I know).
4. If you are using a RAID array I found a bug in the kernel
that I've not yet gotten to report. It has to do with
DEFAULT_SECURITY_SMACK being set.
RUN MOUNT
5. Is the dir mounted with -o ro (--ro)?
6. is it -o bind mounted?

Sincerely,
David
