Non / HD Permissions Problem
 

I have just migrated my Linux computer to Debian 6.0.5 (64 bit)/KDE 4.4.5 and having a rather strange permission problem with software installed on a second hard drive.

The installer (non-Debian) works without any problems and as long as I run the software in /home/computation there are no problems.

However, when i install the same software on second drive I get a permission denied message when I attempt running the program. Further, I have no problems saving files on the second drive.

For example:

It would seen that both partitions are found.

root@debian:/sde2# l
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct 15 11:57 Apps

drwxr-xr-x 40 root root 4096 Oct 14 15:12 computation
drwx------ 2 root root 16384 Sep 29 11:06 lost+found

root@debian:/sde2/Apps# l
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 4 computation computation 4096 Oct 15 11:40 ecce-v6.4
drwxr-xr-x 10 computation computation 4096 Sep 29 16:18 MGLTools-1.5.4
drwxr-xr-x 2 computation computation 4096 Sep 29 16:17 scratch

It would seem that the installer has set permissions at computation computation, but:

computation@debian:/sde2/Apps/ecce-v6.4/apps/scripts$ ./ecce
bash: ./ecce: Permission denied

I get the same response for every executable in the Apps directory. (the paths are set by the installer).

what does the -Z option to ls say?
