ChatUI on HuggingFace Spaces errors out with PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

When I try following the below two tutorials I hit the same error, where the container code tries to create a directory and fails due to permission issues on the host

tutorials:
1. https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/spaces-sdks-docker-chatui#chatui-on-spaces
2. https://huggingface.co/blog/Llama2-for-non-engineers

Note: I have set the env vars `HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN` and in a prior attempt `HF_TOKEN` as well.
