Same here on debian wheezy.
from speedtest-linux.
Our code curls the upstream source to file $memf,
then does the following:
chmod 755 $memf
# A file in shared memory /dev/shm needs execute permission.
That may be the problem.
So try resetting memf variable to a file where you have
the ability to change permissions.
Be sure the directory and file permissions are set properly.
The default name of the log file is speedtest.log
is destined as follows in the source:
logdir="/home/${USER}/var/log/net"
# ^RENAME log directory for your personal use; for --log option.
Usually that path is not ready-made by the system, so
it up to the user to handle that.
After the logdir is set, you can write to different log files, e.g.
$ speedtest --log tmp.log
Hope this resolves the issue... please write back to confirm. Thanks!

On my system /dev/shm
is a link to /run/shm
-- could that be the problem?
I changed the path to /tmp/
to make it work.

@panzerfahrer Apparently:
"It's perfectly okay to use some directory in /run as long as you have the appropriate rights on it. In some modern distros, /tmp is already a virtual file system in memory or a symlink to a directory inside /run"
/tmp is perfectly fine if writing to disk is acceptable.
For Ubuntu, /dev/shm writes to shared memory, so it's just milliseconds faster :)
If /tmp works for everyone, perhaps the source should be revised. Thanks!
