If you do, make sure the directory being pointed to has at least 1777 permissions. Something wants to tell me, you have one of these set to '.' which is not a good idea. It would be better to unset them, and let GNOME use the system temp directory. Next, check the perms on /var/tmp, /tmp, and your home directory. Both /tmp and /var/tmp should be at least 1777. You home directory needs to be owned by you, and at least 0700. This error occurs when ORBit2 tries to create a directory with 0700 permissions in the temporary directory (usually /var/tmp) and access is denied.
