Stuck trying to Start Tomcat7 back up

Hello everyone,

I've spent the last few days trying to figure this out. I've followed the tutorial to the T for this 6.4 installation on Ubuntu. When I try to restart Tomcat I get the following error:

INFO: JVM unique ID: <10.240.120.134> bitronix.tm.utils.InitializationException: cannot open disk journal at bitronix.tm.BitronixTransactionManager.(BitronixTransactionManager.java:98) at bitronix.tm.TransactionManagerServices.getTransactionManager(TransactionManagerServices.java:75) at bitronix.tm.integration.tomcat55.BTMLifecycleListener.lifecycleEvent(BTMLifecycleListener.java:18) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.java:117) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleBase.java:90) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase.setStateInternal(LifecycleBase.java:402) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase.start(LifecycleBase.java:147) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.start(Catalina.java:689) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:606) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.start(Bootstrap.java:321) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:455) Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: btm2.tlog (Permission denied) at java.io.RandomAccessFile.open(Native Method) at java.io.RandomAccessFile.(RandomAccessFile.java:241) at bitronix.tm.journal.DiskJournal.createLogfile(DiskJournal.java:237) at bitronix.tm.journal.DiskJournal.open(DiskJournal.java:137) at bitronix.tm.BitronixTransactionManager.(BitronixTransactionManager.java:85) ... 13 more <

The premissions at the /opt/bonita level are open for Tomcat7. The /opt/bonita/btm/work/ folder is currently empty.

I have no idea how to get it to work.

Thanks!
