I just managed to recreate this on a new platform I've just built while setting up LDAP sync. 9.4M4 with EG7.13 on Linux. I'm recording the solution here so people can find it while googling for it. The solution for this is that while EG says it's the %temp% file that the user doesn't have access to, it's actually the real/server file system that there's no access. I created the original file as sasdemo_cod which had 644 permission in Linux. I ended up deleting that user from metadata and switched to sasdemo_prod in EG. I triggered the error trying to save it. On the filesystem, I changed it to 666, removed the file from the project, added it back, and all was well. The evidence can be shown in the EG log while set to debug (excerpt pasted below).
