Cannot create directory permission denied

I am deploying my rails application to a vps. On cap deploy:setup I get the error that mkdir: cannot create directory `/apps'.

I am using set :user_sudo, false in my deploy.rb file.

I am a linux newbie, How can I give permission to the current user to create directories.

You will not have (or should not) hand permission to create directories to the root ('/') directory.

Change the mkdir command to create the directory in a directory where the process has the appropriate permissions.
