Hy,
I'm using openSUSE 10.2
I downloaded jre-6-linux-i586-rpm.bin and followed the instructions to install. So I changed to su ,without that it did not work, gave chmod a+x jre-6-linux-i586-rpm.bin followed by ./ jre-6-linux-i586-rpm.bin , which did not work. So I tried sh jre-6-linux-i586-rpm.bin That gave the reaction line 305 ./install.sfx.17957: access refused
I'm willing to bet that your home partition is mounted with the "noexec" option.
What is the output from "cat /proc/mounts" and which is the partition where you are trying to do this? Content of /etc/fstab might help too
cat /proc/mounts rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 udev /dev tmpfs rw 0 0 /dev/hdf3 / reiserfs rw 0 0 proc /proc proc rw 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs rw 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 /dev/hdf1 /boot ext2 rw 0 0 /dev/hde1 /windows/C vfat rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,gid=100,fmask=0002,dmask=0002,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,utf8 0 0 Seeing this I realised that I downloaded to /dev/hde1 with another filesystem. I downloaded it again to /dev/hdf3 and all went as I wanted; with that remark that I had to use hs ...... instead of ./ , as instructed from Sun.
