Create TableSpace Permissions Problem

I'm trying to execute the following on a Linux box w/ Oracle 9i from a Squirrel SQL client:

Code:

---

CREATE TABLESPACE test01
        DATAFILE '/test01_001.dbf'
        SIZE 15M REUSE
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL

---

But I'm getting the following error when I execute:

Quote:

---

Error: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01119: error in creating database file '/test01_001.dbf'
ORA-27040: skgfrcre: create error, unable to create file
Linux Error: 13: Permission denied

---

Anyone know what this means?

You don't have 'write' permission to that folder.

Yeah, I figured that out :) I just wanted to put it in the root folder for testing, then figured out that I wouldn't be able to do that, LOL
