I am unable to reslove this issue -

I get this error
EACCES: permission denied, open './test.jpg'

I am using AWS EC2 instance,

How can I solve this error?
I believe there could be some owner, group or permission error.
Can you please help

Can u run the test code? What code are you currently running? If you post the code with the error message, it is easier to guess. Permission errors are easy to solve, but out of scope in this case...I suggest you learn that (it is really really easy in linux/unix).
