I wanted to reply to an old thread but couldn't. The thread was just too old. But the the suggestion in there by mynameanu's solved a major headache for me today...
It started (after migrating to a new server) with an email pipe to a PHP script throwing a "no input file specified" error. The script and its forwarder had been working perfectly for years. I tried all kinds of things, and nothing worked. And then I noticed a "permission denied" error when logging in via SFTP. Logging in via SSH confirmed that I had insufficient permissions in the user's home directory -- I couldn't even the list the directory contents with "ls". Other directories like /var were listing fine.
I then unmounted the virtual home directory as suggestion in the other thread, and the problem was solved!
The cause of the problem? The first attempt to transfer the account from another cPanel failed. I then restored from a full backup. The failed transfer probably had some left-overs in the /home/virtfs.
Maybe this will help someone else

Code:
root@server[~]# umount /home/virtfs/<user>/home/<user>/Maybe this will help someone else
