Re: [IBMiOSS] First error in getting Perzl stuff

I find i could not change ownership or mode, but I could remove the files - so I cleared the directory and FTP'd the files to the directory - now I own them, and chmod did fine - no error.

My basic question then becomes - is my authorization adequate for all this?

I don't really want to run setup.sh until I have an idea of that.

Thanks again
Vern

First, are you running this from an SSH session (i.e putty from your
laptop) or from CALL QP2TERM?

Second, when I run into issues like this I try to eliminate possible issues
(i.e. ownership) and incrementally build up to the issue. Run both of the
below commands and let us know if they both run successfully.

$ echo "echo 'something'" >> junk.sh
$ chmod +x junk.sh

Folks

I downloaded the ZIP from the litmis page on bitbucket - made the download
directory in /QOpenSys - put contents of ZIP into it - CD's to it - and did
this from the "instructions" on the litmis page -

First I ran ls -l and got this -

ls -l

-rwxrwxrwx 1 guest 0 12461 Jul 13 11:06 wwwperzl.sh

All the objects have x, but I did this anyhow, as in the "instructions"

chmod +x setup.sh
chmod: setup.sh: Operation not permitted.

So it appears either I don't have the right authority or it balks because
everything already has x mode - too long since I did this with Debian 18
years ago!

Thanks
Vern
