: Every time I try to execute a binary from the bash prompt I get this
: message:
:
: bash: ./filename: file not found
Two possibilities:
1. The execute bit isn't set on this file. Try
$ chmod ugo+rx filename
and then try ./filename again.
2. The permissions on the directory are wrong. If the file is in the
directory /usr/local/some/dir then try
$ cd /usr/local/some
$ chmod ugo+wrx dir
$ cd dir
$ ./filename
