unable to copy the following message shows: “no such file or directory”
I just recently installed Ubuntu 14.04 server to host an open source human resources software with 20 computers on our office network. I am new to Linux and I really need everyone's help!
sudo cp -R /var/lib/iHRIS/lib/4.1.9/ihris-manage/sites/blank /var/lib/iHRIS/sites/manage
I'm using the above command to copy but the following message shows:
"cp: cannot stat ‘/var/lib/iHRIS/lib/4.1.9/ihris-manage/sites/blank’: No such file or directory"
What do I missed?! Everyone's kind assistance is greatly appreciated!
Thank you,

check all the directory names exactly as it is or not (case sensitive), see if there are any space in between directory names.

Thank you everyone! There is a compressed file with extension tar.bz2 in folder 4.1.9, if I uncompressed this file it will show the "ihris-manage folder and all subfolders, but I try to uncompressed it but there is a message saying that "you don't have the right permission to extract archive in this folder". What do I have to do?

Try to type in the shell
ls -l /var/lib/iHRIS/lib/4.1.9/ihris-manage/sites/blank
it would probably say that the file does not exist. So go up one element in the path and do
ls -l /var/lib/iHRIS/lib/4.1.9/ihris-manage/sites/
...it should list all the files in this directory. If still gives you an error, try with
ls -l /var/lib/iHRIS/lib/4.1.9/ihris-manage/
...and so on. You got the idea, you are bound to find the part of your pathname which is wrong or mispelled.

Please check the spelling and case of the file/directory path your are trying to copy. This is most likely due to a mistyped file/directory path. Remember that Linux is case-sensitive, and if you have any spaces in a file/directory names you must put the path in quotes:
sudo cp -R "/home/username/some folder name/"
