Adding openEMR 5.0.0 patch

I have downloaded the December patch for 5.0.0. It is sitting in my inbox. I am not sure which directory is the “openemr web directory”. I have tried to move it to /var/www and to /var/www/openemr , but the computer says that I do not have permission to do this. I am working in Ubuntu 16.*.
Any suggesions would be appreciated.

hi @docrovner, what is output after you enter this command
ls -lrt /var/www/html/openemr

The /openemr folder contains all the files involved with the program. I just installed 5.0.0 about a week ago, so everything should be up to date. I am at a loss as to why I do not have permission to move my own files.

Can you please share the error log if it still persists.

Thanks,

Thanks for the help. Using the sudo command opened up the file.
