This is caused by permissions on the filesystem for that directory. To fix this, please take a look at our JIRA Generates a FileNotFoundException due to Permission denied KB article. Essentially, the fix is to modify the permissions with the following:

sudo chown -R jira:jira /var/atlassian/application-data/

sudo chown -R jira:jira /opt/atlassian/jira/
