help me please

can anybody tellme how do i log as a root in the terminal, is the only way
i see to install new programs, but i need the permission.

help me please

On the target?

On the factory distro you are by default the root user.

but when im trying to install a program its appear a messenge permission
denied. i give permission with the command chmod 777 and when i write ls-l
the archive seems have all permissions
-rwxrwxrwx the first - i think that it is because it and executable im not
sure. help me please

Think you had better tell us what program you are trying to install on what
and a printout of the EXACT error message.

im trying to install abyss web server, and im executing the command
./abyss, in the carpet bin i create the dictory abyss web server, when i
execute that command the mistake is this:

/bin/sh: ./: permission denied.

im following a tutorial in internet to install this program in linux but im
no sure if the dictory where i install is bin, i think i should install it
in etc because there is install the programs

i hope you can help me

bye

who can help me please!!!

I don't think it is normal to place programs in /etc.

I believe they normally go in /usr/bin.

You can run a program from anywhere if you have a path to it or you execute
it directly from where it is located.

On the host do:
sudo ./abyss

On the target just do:
abyss

Perhaps ./abyss should work as well.

Make sure there is no space after the /


There are 482,000 hits on Google for "permission denied"

today i tried to install the abyss in a pc with ubuntu, but i had the same
problem, so i think that the problem its not for 2440, but i need to
install some progrmas,i heard about sycronize mini2440 with a desktop pc,
but i look for it and cant find how.

can you help how to sycronize or install new programas in the mini2440, i
need to install php and web server, please help!!

thanks to every body

very good the foros

This is just a stab in the dark, as i'm more WinCE, but have you tried:
chmod +777 abyss

or:
chmod a+x abyss

Both commands set execute rights for all users, i just don't know which
flavour mini2440 use.

you can also try:
chown abyss
This makes sure that you own it.

Thank you,
Errol

i have already tried with chmod, but not with chown im gonna see, thanks

hi i install the abyss succesfull in ubuntu and i realize of this:
when i write this command in ubuntu i do in this way
./abyssws but when i do it in mini2440 appears this mistake: syntax error
"(" unexpected, so i write it in this way ./ abyssws and then appears the
same mistake you dont have permissions. check the space between / and
abyssws.


help me please!!! what should i do

i think that the solution could be upgrating the kernel,but how i install
it?
i followed the instruccion of the manuals here but when i tried with
version like 2.6.29 y extract the archives and im no sure what i have to do
there are so many documents which one should i select in the program dnw?

could be this the solution

help me!!

hi felipe,

your line 
/bin/sh: ./: permission denied.
let me assume you start an script and these script tryes to execute any
thing like ./$PROGNAME where $PROGNAME is empty. ./ is a directory which
cannot executed and the error message therefor is permission denied.

skip

that mistake appears when you says but when i place in the righ carpet
(inside abyssws) and write ./abyssws the messege is this syntax error: "("
unexpected, how can i resolve this

help me please

your error looks like a syntax error in a script. 
look at the first line of the script, which interpreter is used? sh is not
bash and bash is not ksh.... even the syntax of these shells is mainly
identical, there exists subtil differences. on your host, you have all
types of shell but on the mini is only busybox that emulates the shell.
it's seams you have to fix the shell script to running in busybox.

skip

i think that you are right the mistake can be for this reason, but how can
i fix it?? any idea or link where i can find information, im looking too,
but its very dificullt forme

hi im trying to install a diferent web server this time its cherokee, but
when im install it appears this mistake: no acceptable C compiler found in
$PATH
See `config.log' for more details.

I have been reading and i have to install gcc or tell the mini where its
but i dont have any idea, and what i find in internet dont helpme

please any idea how can i install this


helpp!!! jejeje
 thanks to every body
