Failed to create a location and file for the PDF export.

Cannot export PDF.
I guess confluence can't create a folder directory.

What can I do?

I'm going to assume you mis-tagged this with Cloud and you are on server (as you would not see this sort of error on Cloud)

It is what it says it is - the Confluence server process is running as a user who does not have full write access to /confluence_home/temp on the server.
