Quick question. we have people working on a shared server. I have written a workflow that runs locally under my env. But when my colleague tries to run the same workflow on the server, he got the following error
```
$ python tasks/run_workflow.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/pathlib.py", line 1284, in mkdir
    self._accessor.mkdir(self, mode)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/flyte/20220422_220444/sandbox/local_flytekit'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

```
How do I ensure reproducibility for different local environments?

@Han, can you share more details about your workflow? How are you running it? And how is your colleague running it?

We both work on the same shared server. We are both just doing
```
python run_workflow.py
```
from our user accounts on that server.

aah you mean shared-server for the local development?
it is like a jupyter shared server?
it seems you do not have permissions to create
```
/tmp/flyte
```
folder?

Can you double check if your colleague has access to /tmp/flyte?

@Eduardo Apolinario (eapolinario) i think what happened is one of them first created
```
/tmp/flyte
```
and the second person cannot access it, as we restrict it to the uid only
we should probably create a random sandbox per vm?

Yes! It's a shared server for development (bare metal). I am guessing that I ran a workflow “locally”, and flyte setup local temp, but others don't have permissions. So when they try to run flyte workflow on their accounts they don't have access and get blocked.
I can try to ask admin to open up access of that folder for everyone, not sure how would flyte sandbox change the permissions after a workflow run tho.
