ORA-22288: file or LOB operation FILEOPEN failed Permission denied

Question : ORA-22288: file or LOB operation FILEOPEN failed Permission denied

I have installed Oracle XE (Universal) on Fedora Core 8

I am trying to update Apex to 3.1.1. I have downloaded and extracted the zip file using unizp apex_3.1.1.zip

I ran   @apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
and  @apxchpwd

Both were successful

Now when I am executing this

@apxldimg.sql /home/myuser

I am getting

Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 – Production

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

Solution: ORA-22288: file or LOB operation FILEOPEN failed Permission denied

did you grant READ on APEX_IMAGES to the oracle account?
