+1, same issue here, when syncing two Macs with Photos Libraries, the Mac which receives the Folder says Permission denied for that folder. I'd say this is a client issue. Mac Client 2.5.4 (build 11456).

Found the issue: macOS Mojave has a new security feature, apps who want access to Photos need special permissions and should ask for it: https://www.howtogeek.com/361707/how-macos-mojaves-privacy-protection-works/

Found the solution: You can add the ownCloud client to System Prefs/Security & Privacy/Privacy/Full Disk Access and the issue is gone.
