For people who uses MacOs with prebuilt zsh and installed oh-my-zsh on top of that (similar error)

compaudit | xargs chmod g-w,o-w

This might fix it.

I've change the permission, but that's not enough to make it work, so I also need to change ownership of the directory

chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/share/zsh

OR

chown -R <USERNAME> /usr/local/share/zsh

This way it works for me, and I hope it will also helpful to you too.

Try to change .oh-my-zsh/ permissions:

➜ sudo chmod -R 755 ~/.oh-my-zsh

If it doesn't help, try:

➜ chmod 755 /usr/local/share/zsh
➜ chmod 755 /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions

I had a similar issue with the most recent ohmyzsh update. One of the directories under .oh-my-zsh had 777 permissions. Changing that directory to 755 fixed my issue. I don't know if that will help you because those folders already appear to have 755 permissions. Try navigating to those folders and checking the permissions manually.
