Your permission denied problems can arise from a few different causes. One is directory permissions. You may have permissions on the file, but not write permissions in the directory which you want to write to.

Who is the ownner and what permissions are for the directory /opt? On most systems you need to be root to write to /opt.

I also don't understand your need to use mv. What's wrong with a copy then a delete?
