Making a File Executable

Last Updated: June 4, 2009


Sometimes programs you need to run in Linux are not pre-set as 'executable'. This will cause errors because when you try to run the software it will not run.

To make a file executable do the following.

1. Type: chmod a+x my_file
(NOTE: Replace "my_file" with the NAME of your file!)
