I am a newbie in Linux administration. I deleted my Django project directory from the remote Ubuntu server. The project was located here:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/my_proj

So I removed my_proj doing rm -rf my_proj, and then I re-created my_proj doing

sudo mkdir my_proj.

Then I go back to my local Windows putty app, and run the following command:

pscp -r C:\Users\workspace\my_proj my_username@remove_server_url:/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/my_proj

I get permission denied to create folder error for every file and directory inside my_proj. I tried to run chmod command in Ubuntu, something like

sudo chmod -R 777 /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/my_proj/

...but get strange error:

sudo /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set

the ownership on sudo must have mistakenly been changed. to fix login as root and run:

chown root:root /usr/bin/sudo && chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo
