I tried to install VMWare in konsole with user root. Here are what I have done:
*
chmod +x VMware-Workstation-6.5.0-118166.x86_64.bundle
./VMware-Workstation-6.5.0-118166.x86_64.bundle*
After the second command was executed, error bash: ./VMware-Workstation-6.5.0-118166.x86_64.bundle: Permission denied prompted.
Can anybody tell me why?? I am quite new to linux.
Btw, I can successfully install the software with the command
sh VMware-Workstation-6.5.0-118166.x86_64.bundle
Hi
You need a period before the backslash to execute;
../<name_of_file>

thanks~~
one more question, any deference between sh and … / ??
It should do, if you make it executable first with the chmod
command ./ will work, if you don’t use the chmod, use sh.
It’s also dependent on the whole shebang (#!/…) entry at the
beginning of the script.
For example it may be a perl script (generally indicated by
<filename>.pl) so it would be perl <filename>.pl or python
<filename>.py so in that case it would be python <filename>.py etc
If you don’t know what it’s using, just chmod it and you should be good
to go.
