This looks like a lack of write-permission. Or maybe there is a delay in creating the directory ? --- due to some kind of caching of OS commands ?
No, No, and no. The same things have been known to happen on Windows 9x, NT/2000/XP. One does not configure write permissions on 9x at all (it's a single user OS), and on NT/2000/XP I've administered these systems for many years and can assure you sufficient permissions existed at the time of these errors.
During my troubleshooting I determined the first and third error messages are truthful (there really was no such file or directory) and as for the second.....L2H seems to be the only app with trouble using that directory.
I did not take the time to convince myself with 100% certainty, but I specifically remember downgrading to an older version of MiKTeX for Windows seemed to solve many, if not all, my problems. I suggest a similar approach for the current user with the difficulties (IOW, try a different LaTeX package.)
