Hi Nicolas, It seems that you have mounted the problematic partition (/home) in /etc/fstab with 'noexec'. Remove the 'noexec' option from your /etc/fstab file and then remount the partition. Regards, Alin. Nicolas Dubuit wrote:

Hi,

It seems that no executable file (shell script or compiled program) can be executed on one of my partitions (ext3 mounted on /home), even as root, even with "755" rights: I get an error message telling "permission refused". However, the same files seem to execute fairly on the "main" (mountpoint /) ReiserFS partition.

If I try to run a configure shell script from /home/somewhere, using "sh ./configure" (as ./configure alone aint allowed), I get an error message telling me that I'm not able to run C compiled programs and asking me whether I am cross compiling. (but anyway my gcc is for i586 so this is ok). The same script works fine from /root for example.

(My config is: P4 - SUSE9.0)

Do someone have the solution to this?

Nicolas
