'mkdir' in a shell file cannot create directory: "Permission denied"
I have a shell script in my home folder:
copy.sh
mkdir new_folder
when I ran the shell script from my home folder:
./copy.sh
I got error message:
-bash: ./copy.sh: Permission denied
Why?

You have to give the script execution permission:
chmod +x path_to_the_copy.sh
