Automator fail to copy files

Hallo,

I'm trying to set up a workflow with Automator:


Get FInder element

copy Finder element


Whatever source file or destination I try, the answer is always "Copy Finder elements error impossible to save file xxx to the folder yyy"


Of course, if I copy manually same file on same folder, it works ...


Any clue ?


Thanks !

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5), OS X installed on external SSD

You may have to give Automator and/or your workflow Full Disk Access in System Preferences->Security & Privacy.
