then it means that the current user doesn't have `root permissions`. To set it:
* `SSH` into your EB instance:
* Assume root permissions by:
* `sudo su`
* Create temporary password for `Root User`:
* `# passwd root`
* Run `vi` to edit any files as `Root User`.
* Delete the temporary password:
* `passwd -d root`
