If you uploaded the files as being root, and you want to execute  the files
as being blablausername, you will have to set the file/folder properties to
that  particular user.

Otherwise that user never can run those files cause they aren't his.

Onderwerp: [cod] Ryan or others: ./cod4_lnxded Run as a non root user issue

 

Hello, 

 

I came across a new problem trying to run  ./cod4_lnxded as a non root user.


 

2 different machines, same file permissions (verified 5 times), one works
like it should the other one I get a weird problem.

 

As root running  ./cod4_lnxded  works like a charm. 

When I su my user and run  ./cod4_lnxded  I get these errors:

 

./cod4_lnxded: line 48: cd: .//: Not a directory  (that command [cd .//] if
I su user works fine!)

./cod4_lnxded: line 49: / COD4/COD4-Base/cod4_lnxded-bin: Permission
denied/COD4/COD4-Base/cod4_lnxded-bin: Permission denied

./cod4_lnxded: line 49: exec: / COD4/COD4-Base/cod4_lnxded-bin: cannot
execute: Permission denied

 

If I su and run ./cod4_lnxded-bin  it works fine, so why do I get  cd: .//:
Not a directory and permission deny when there is no permission errors. 

 

Its most likely a permission for users on that machine somehow but I cant
figure it out.

 

 

Thank you for the help 

Stephane
