I was trying to install Opendtect in Ubuntu and I am finding the following error during installation:

Err: Corrupt survey: missing directory: /tmp/Seismics
Err: Cannot open user settings file for write
    Cannot open '/home/dibakar/.od/settings.new' for write
Err: Cannot open user settings file for write
    Cannot open '/home/dibakar/.od/settings.new' for write

Any help on this issue will be appreciated.

  • Which version of ubuntu are you using? Which version of Opendtect are you trying to install? How are you trying to install it? (did you download a .deb of another installer? What version was the installer?) Feb 16, 2015 at 20:44
  • I am using Ubuntu 12.04 and opendetect 4.6.0. Feb 17, 2015 at 9:59

Got this from Dibakar Ghosal his comment:

You have to change the permissions of the .od files. Make them writable.
