Hi, I made my local security setting more secure with the yast security
module and now I get a host of problems with running configure and
cmake. I've tried setting them back to easy but nothing changes, I can't
even run ./configure and have to use sh configure. This problem affects
root as well how can I fix it?


I thought SUSEConfig did this. Perhaps looking at the /etc/permissions*
files might help get you started. That is all I know for this.



I've even deleted /etc/permissions and reinstalled to ensure I have the
default. Somewhere there's a config file that stops execution of scripts
with the executable bit set.

You might have remounted the filesystem you are building on non-exec.

Ciao, Marcus

I build on an ext4 filesystem and my root is xfs and this is across both
and it started immediately after I'd played permissions with yast
security. After writing this email I've realized that it's only shell
scripts that are affected and python, perl and other scripts aren’t.
/dev/sda3 on / type xfs (rw,relatime) and /dev/sda5 on /data type ext4
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,relatime,acl).
