You need to set execute permission on the configure script. That's what the shell is telling you. "L. Mark Stone" wrote:
I'm trying to install the latest version of Quanta. Yast and apt do not have the latest version, so I d/l'd the bz2 file from Sourceforge.
After I expanded the file, I went to run ./configure, and got the following:
bronxville:/home/lms/Documents/Downloads/quanta-3.0 # ./configure bash: ./configure: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied bronxville:/home/lms/Documents/Downloads/quanta-3.0 #
I'm running SuSE 8.1.
I'm not a programmer, so the whole build process is something I do rote, without really understanding what's going on. I don't want to be a programmer either; I just want to run the app!
