Permission Denied?

[Ecolem]

Hi all,
im still very much learning Ubuntu Feisty but im no mug when it comes to messages like

"There was an error launching the application. Details:Failed to execute child process '(the location)' (Permission Denied)"

Appreciate the help in advance

It looks like you should change the rights on the so called child process. Maybe you do not have the right to use it, this kind of things happened to me, afer i installed using sudo.

i see. Any heads up as to how i could do that?

thanks

hmmm, maybe you could post the whole error? instead of "the location"? 

Maybe try   sudo chmod 755 -R "the location"

"-r" may be dangerous, lets first see what the location is...
