Are you the "superuser" (root) account? If not, you won't be able to chown or chmod the /tmp directory. You might have permission via "su", but might need to know the root password. If you are on a shared server, you often don't have permission to write to /tmp, and need to define a "temporary" directory within your own (permitted) directory structure. Instead of /tmp, try just tmp or tmp/ in the configuration. If you do some searching, I believe this topic has been discussed many times before.
