I've recently migrated from nautilus to Nemo. I've been reading a PDF and selected File > Open Containing folder option.

This message appeared:

Failed to execute child process "nemo" (Permission denied)

Why did this happen?

What can I do?

This problem appears to be because AppArmor is restricting what evince can do. A work-around is to disable AppArmor for evince:

sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.evince /etc/apparmor.d/disable/usr.bin.evince

sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor restart
