You own the permissions on the db directory, but what about the "my"
directory? What about search (execute) permission on all directories
leading down to these from the root directory? The error is consistent
with either a non-existant directory name, or a problem with permissions
(especially search permissions on directories above). Your endings
databases are in /tmp because that's where htfuzzy endings creates them
originally (or in TMPDIR if defined in the environment), then it tries
to move them to the common_dir, which will also fail if the path or
permissions are wrong.
