General :: Why A Folder Must Be Executable
Jul 28, 2010
Permission for files:
chmod 664 myFile // rw-rw-r--
And for folders:
chmod 774 myFolder // rwxrwxr--
If I only use the "read and write" permission, the folders won't show its contents, why ?

I'm trying to run Starcraft 2 from the installation folder I kept from my previous windows install, and when I double-click the .exe I get an error that says it doesn't have permission to run as an executable. So I checked out the properties page, permissions tab, and for some ungodly reason none of the changes I make stick. The second I click the check box for "Run as an exectuable" it unchecks. I have no idea what to do and I've scoured the net looking for an answer. I'd prefer to avoid redownloading it (didn't buy the retail version) but it's looking like my only option at this point.

I am running into a snag on .exe files in Lucid. I have Wine installed, but I can not open the file as it is blocked from executing with a window popping up telling me that this file was blocked due to security reasons. I go into the files properties and try to change the permission but that does not help. Is there a way to get around this? Possibly in the terminal as root?

I cannot figure out how to "install" a program I downloaded. It comes in Windows, Mac, and Linux flavors, and I did acquire the Linux version, which comes in a ZIP file. After I unzip it and cd to the directory it is in, I had an earlier version working a few months ago, but cannot recall how I made it work back then.

I have a compiled program, a tagger to identify parts of text, which claims it does not exist.This executable has to be called by a generated script, which is how I ran into this issue. What are the reasons this error could show up?The executable was copied from another machine.The file does have execution privileges (it gives a proper not-allowed message without them)I've tried copying the file to a different location (same problem)I've tried replacing the file with a fresh copy (same problem)The file does exist. Opening it with pico shows a file with binary data.

I have program (command line) that requires another program be installed and in its path. So I downloaded the file (.tgz), and extracted. I followed the compile and make instructions and ended up with a folder on my desktop that contains the excutable but is not in the path of the the other program. How can I do this..I think that I have about 20 more .tgz files to do this with.

I wanted to enable file sharing in for one of my folders under the home directory. I noticed that the 'not shared' and 'shared' always defaulted back to 'not shared'. And now I see what looks like an electrical plug icon symbol over the folder icon symbol like I might see used for some of the root folders. What does the new icon indicate about the folder attributes and why does file sharing default to 'not shared'?

Is there a way to recreate all the folders from one directory to another without copying over the contents of the folder? I've been trying to do something like this,
Code:for i in `ls $X`; do mkdir $PATH/$i; doneUnfortunately $i is deliminated by whitespaces in the filenames and not the actual folders.
$X contains only other folders so I dont have to worry about regular files but any kind of more "advanced" solution would work.

How would i go about copying all .jpg or .JPG files from a folder and all its subfolders to my /usr/name/pictures folder? I'm guessing I'd have to use some sort of .[jJ][pP][gG] to get all the pictures from other examples i've seen, but really not sure how to use that in a recursive cp.

For PE executable, I can list the imported symbols using
dumpbin /imports FILE.EXE
or using the depends utility which is GUI application.
`nm ELF-binary' just returns "no symbols".

Where a,b are executable files. What I want to is to only copy a and b to another location. Is it possible? (other than by manually issuing copy a,b another_dir).

I've been trying to write a bash script called runSorter.sh that runs an executable that also takes in some parameters and outputs the results to a text file. The executable, sorter, takes in a number parameter. I want to make it so that you can input as many number parameters into runSorter.sh as you want and it will run the sorter executable for each one. So far, what I have looks like this:
#!/bin/bash
args=("$@")
INDEX=0
if [ -z args ]; then
echo "Error"
else
while [ $# -gt $INDEX ]; do
NUM=${args[$INDEX]}
echo $NUM
echo ./sorter $NUM
let INDEX=INDEX+1
done
fi
My problem is that when I run ./run-sorter.sh 100 on my terminal, it just prints this to the screen:
./sorter 100
How can I have so that it properly executes sorter and outputs everything to a text file?
