Googling suggests this is a common Mac OS error, or https://chipcullen.com/fixing-bad-interpreter-error-aws-python-3_7/ - but either way I'm not sure how I can debug it from here.

What happens if you chmod a+x /home/ec2-user/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin/node?

thanks for your helps. it's 700, i tried to chmod to 777/755, same error, Not MacOS, it's AWS Rocky 8.9 AMI. However, if i run: `sudo /home/ec2-user/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin/node -v', it printed v20.17.0 (correct). The installation was under non-root user.

[ljharb]

Assuming that nvm is installed under ec2-user, can you run other things you install as ec2-user? or does AWS only let you run your own programs as root?

@ljharb: Thanks very much for the helps. I finally figured it out that the issue was caused by fapolicyd, Without updating or remove it, all chmod commands have no effects at all in Rocky linux.
