permission denied error when running .sh on Ubuntu 22.04

[joshbrown75]

I'm running Ubuntu Desktop 22.04, default install (no upgrades other than those that come with the installer). I downloaded the builder-linux-x64-0.17.b12.tgz file and was able to tar extract the archive as per the instructions; however, when I got to the part where it says "run ./GUIslice.sh" I get a permission denied error even when running with the sudo command. Not sure where to go from here._

I'm new to the linux environment, is there a switch I need to flip somewhere to let me run the .sh command?

@joshbrown75 I assume you didn't type:

run ./GUIslice.sh

but instead simply did:

./GUIslice.sh

Try setting the execute permission on the script inside your terminal

sudo chmod +x GUIslice.sh

from that point on ./GUIslice.sh should work for you but if not cd into GUIsliceBuilder/bin and set execute permission on GUIslice and then try running that script

cd bin
sudo chmod +x GUIslice
./GUIslice

Please post if either works for you.

@joshbrown75 Since you haven't responded in two weeks I'm going to assume my suggestions worked or you gave up.

In either case I'm going to close this issue. If you are still having problems and you post any new information I'll reopen. Paul--

@joshbrown75 I now suspect your issue is similar to issue 213 where java needs execute permission added. I'll spin a new release with this added.

fixed in release 0.17.b13
