ERROR: Failed when creating new document/object

Issue:
ERROR: Failed when creating new document/object.
Error copying template while performing new object operation:Cannot make copy of the document 'Blank Word 97 / 2000 Document'

Solution:
check the permissions and give atleast write permissions!
check the permissions in the data directory ie to the specific path

verify the /Templates cabinet, these templates are there and the owner(dmdmin) has delete permissions on these templates
