Title: Installing (Ubuntu 7.10)
Post by: potatoehead64 on February 22, 2008, 03:29:02 pm

Hi Folks,

I've just downloaded this game and have been reading some posts here on installation problems.
I've followed the script: -

(The .bin file is in a folder named "Games" and I have proceeded to that folder via the terminal.
I have this version .bin file "PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin"
I've processed "chmod -x PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin" and no errors occurred (no output appeared on screen, so I'm guessing thats ok."

"ls -l" displays "-rw-r--r--  1 marty marty 294712984 2008-02-22 13:56 PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin"

When I then enter "./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin" I get the following output

"bash: ./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin: Permission denied"

I'm a little unsure about the permissions coding due to limited knowledge using terminal commands. Any ideas?

Thanks

Marty ???

OK. No worries, the above can be ignored. I sussed it out. "+x" and not "-x". It seems I'd simply removed the executable in the script. DOH!  :oops:
