Compiling and running the present version gives "no permission" for the
serial/usb ports.

You need to run your program either as root or ensure that the user you run
as is allowed to use the ports.
You can check that by doing a "ls -l /dev/tty*", which will list the user
and group of the ttys as well as the permissions. With "groups" you should
be able to list what groups your user is part of and whether one of those
matches the group of the ports you try to access.
