Issue:
One or more databases required restoration from backup. They were restored but then server complains not able to read/write. GUI may show that user notes (the notes server user name and group) and group notes, as owner and check marks are correct. Access is still denied.

Solution:
Ran chown and chmod on databases from terminal window.
e.g.
cd /local/notesdata
chown -R lotusnotes:lotusnotes /local/notesdata
chmod -R 774 .
