The command works if I create the tmpfile in my current (ext4) directory. The permissions on the file are the same in both cases (user:rw only). /tmp is a tmpfs mount owned by user/group root and has full (ugo:rwx) access. I think there's two issues here: 1. For some reason files in tmpfs don't work 2.
