./configure
 

Hi there

what does it mean when i try to

./configure
and the system gives out the message

bad interpreter : permission denied

it´s on SuSE 8.0 and 8.1 and i´m logged in as root

Thanks
Odan

it looks like its trying to use a shell that you might not have (as opposed to say...bash)

edit ./configure and see what the very first line says

well, it says

#! /bin/sh
#...GNU autoconf 2.57....
if test -n "${ZSH_VERSION+set}"&& (emulate sh) >dev/null 2>&1; then emulate sh
NULLCMD=:

...

but what does it mean??
Thanks

???
 

???please help???

Dunno, but ZSH suggests that you have the "Z" shell set.

You can find stuff on that at google.

But I don't know if the Z shell is the same as BASH or different.

Yeah, change to the /bin/bash shell and see if it works.

As root do chsh and console will prompt you to pick a new shell. /bin/bash should be the default one, so just press enter.
