@MyIDKaTePe
I am using CLI, unfortunately the command did not succeed because of a permission issue even when I use a sudoer user or root user. this is weird

4

if you are root
then it should have full permission

Even with root user I get the following error

root@xyz:/home/foo# cp blah-blah-file-202204091800.zip /home/bar/
cp: cannot create regular file '/home/bar/blah-blah-file-202204091800.zip': Operation not permitted

are you talking about cyberpanel or default linux help ?

cp command will work for this change the user directory to root also show me the folder permissions.
