This is the same/similar issue to what was identified in bug 1081149. If you start a process on a machine as userA and then stop it... start it as root... then stop it... then try to start it as userA, it will fail. This is because userA isn't root or doesn't have sufficient privileges. However, we should probably take care of the error message here and explicitly check for permissions. I believe we can detect the file/directory exist and also check to see if we have read/write permission separately.
This is a CP issue, setting to 3.3.1 as no more 3.2.x releases are planned afaik.
