Valluvan 0 Posted May 13, 2003 I am not able to run any executable file in a mounted partition(whether its a script or binary). Can anyone explain why its not possible to run an exe in a mounted partition? Any solution for this problem? Note: I am able to run a script by $ sh script-name when I am giving, I get the following error $ ./script-name (eventhough executable permission is set) bash:./script-name: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied When I am running a binary, $ ./a.out bash: ./a.out: Permission denied Regards, Valluvan.

blueworm 0 Posted May 14, 2003 Ok the awnser is puzzling me, but it could be as simple as setting execute permision as root. You can do this by typing su chmod a+x yourFile.sh try doing this: $ echo > test.sh echo "Hello world" $ ./test.sh :bash ./test.sh: Permission denied // this is normal // to execute the script test.sh you have to make the file executable $ chmod a+x test.sh $ ./test.sh Hello world If all this has helped you please read man page chmod. $ man chmod.
