That means you made insufficient actions to make those files writable. Try
again
As a test you can use /tmp dir

insufficient actions?
Maybe I should start again
I used apt-get install motion and had 1 webcam working just fine.
Then today I went to set up a second webcam and went through editing the .conf
files needed to do.
When I went to restart motion it didn?t work
I had errors about permission denied when writing to files
/var/log/motion/motion.log and /var/run/motion/motion.pid
It said error about ipv4 address already in use
I have no set it back to a single camera and its working, but I would like to
have 2 cameras
I also changed the which usb I plugged the cameras into as I read something
about the 2 left sharing some kind of power thing, so I made sure I tried
plugging them in with 1 on the left and 1 on the right.
I do appreciate the help though
