./install.sh: Permissin denied.

[ALIEN360]

Hello
I want to put my PC in the uptime-project but when I try to install yasuc-0.4.0
it`s says "permission denied"
all ready I have done this:
login as SU
tar xjvf yasuc-0.4.0_x86_freebsd.tar.bz2
chown -R root:wheel /home/ALIEN360/yasuc-0.4.0
./install.sh
but it still say : "./install.sh: Permission denied."

also I looked the forum for solution but I can`t find such

[ALIEN360]

Maybe it just needs a chmod (1)'ing. Darn I forgot to scp that mix over to my laptop.

yep it was all about making it executable :wink: , you may right click on the folder and look for permmisions put tick for "X" and its all done 8)
or just write "chmod /folder the_level_you_want"

You wouldn't believe how many times I forget to chmod scripts before testing them :-)
