Here is what I got:

*** A System Error Has Occurred ***  
                                     
On File: nomjudg.txt                 
                                     
Input Processing                     
Line Number: 239                     
Permission denied                    

Line 239: form "affatty";printer file "nomjudg.txt"
I also tried: printer file "nomjudg.txt"; form "affatty" 

Not sure how I would give filepro additional permission to create a file in
/tmp. I have always been able to export and create files in /tmp.

I also went into /tmp and created a file "nomjudg.txt" and used chmod 777
just in case. That would be full read write and execute.

Absolutely.

No.

Do you have permission to create/write that file?
