Outhier" Subject: Re: Reincarnation of "Permission denied running programs in other directories" To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Well, I think I just made a giant step in the solving of this problem, but I still can't figure out what makes certain executables spit out "Permission Denied" when run. As it turns out, if you'll notice in the makefile output of my recent submission, the makefile makes use of /usr/i686-pc-cygwin/bin/as.exe. The reason it would run at other times (including when in the containing directory) is because the file being executed is actually /usr/bin/as.exe. Since the makefile specifically uses /usr/i686-pc-cygwin/bin/as.exe, this one is run instead of the other one and thus this is the one that "bombs" every time it's run. I hope this helps someone figure out the problem! ===== Sincerely, Aaron J. Outhier garlicsalt2 AT yahoo DOT com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
