Problem:
While trying to run dbca from Oracle user I received the following error:
Cause - No additional information available. Action - Refer to the logs or contact Oracle Support Services Summary - [DBT-00007] User does not have the appropiate write privileges. - [DBT-00007] User does not have the appropiate write privileges.
Screenshot:

Solution:
Make sure the directory has the correct owner and permissions, otherwise set:
# chown oracle:oinstall $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/dbca # chmod 750 $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/dbca
Rerun dbca.
