While trying to startup Applications Manager in Linux, the issue "User does not have proper permissions to start APM" is displayed.
Solution:
Provide permissions for all folders in Applications Manager to the regular user by executing the following command.

sudo chown -R <username>:<groupname> <ApplicationManagerHome>
This changes the ownership of all files and folders within the Applications Manager directory to the specified regular user. The user will then have full permission to access and modify these files and folders.
