./ not working

English Programming/Scripting
#1

Hi,
I’ve install openSUSE11.0 recently…
i was about to install ‘gmake’,so…
i try cd to dir. where ‘configure’ is there, then
i tried ‘./configure’ but it display “Permission Denied!!!”
then i checked it permission and make it executable…
but still it is throwing same error???
I tried with bash, sh and zsh…!!!

#2

Why do you need to install gmake? The make in Linux is normally already GNU make.

#3

Ohhh… OK… that i don’t know…
anyway but ./<script_name> should work right…!!!
Or I have to change setting…???

#4

Maybe you tried to run it on a filesystem without exec permission in the mount? You can see the options in the output of mount. If noexec is in there, you can’t run programs in that partition.

#5

to run a shell script make sure you have permission to run it(chmod a+x) then when you are in the directory where the script is ./script name

easy!

And to verify post the output from:

ls -l ./configure
and:
mount

Good luck.
