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 /local/notesdata/databases from terminal window. 
e.g. 
$ cd /local/notesdata 
$ sudo chown -R notes:notes /local/notesdata 
$ chmod -R 774 . 
 
Notes: 
- The /opt/ibm/domino or /opt/hcl/domino program folder must still be owned by root. Do not change it. 
 
 
A tighter security chmod would be: 
$ sudo find /local/notesdata -type f -exec chmod 760 {} + 
$ sudo find /local/notesdata -type d -exec chmod 770 {} +
