I found my error... Actually /opt/otrs is a symlink to /opt/otrs-2.x.X and I 
had to execute SetPermissions.sh against the actual directory not the symlink

> Hello all,
>
> I installed OTRS from source on a light Debian and ran the SetPermissions.sh 
> like this:
>
> /opt/otrs/bin/SetPermissions.sh /opt/otrs otrs www-data www-data www-data
>
> However, when I first log on to OTRS I have this error message:
>
> Error: Can't write /opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ZZZAAuto.pm: Permission 
> denied!
>
> I know I can solve this manually by giving the right permissions to the 
> Kernel/Config/Files folder which is currently owned by the userID 500 and the 
> group 'Users', but I have some other questions:
>
> First, Is there any risk if I type this command, to make the user otrs (and 
> group www-data) own all the stuffs under /opt/otrs/ and to be sure there will 
> never be a permission problem in the future:
>
> # chown -R otrs.www-data /opt/otrs
>
>
> Then, I think the fact that the files under /opt/otrs/ are owned by userID 
> 500 and group 'users' is due to the OTRS source files having been developed 
> and packaged under another distribution which have these userID and group 
> name. But in Debian, there is no userID 500, and the group 'users'has no 
> member, so maybe this is the source of the permission problem! Am I correct? 
> In that case my first question would make sense.
