[SOLVED] problem assigning custom command for an application

daudiam · 06-25-2011, 12:43 PM

I am using Ubuntu 11.04 (in the classic mode)

Whenever I double-click my sqldeveloper.sh file, it gives weird errors. When I did :

Code:

sh /home/user/Softwares/sqldeveloper/sqldeveloper.sh

on the terminal, the program started up. So, I went to the "open with" on the shell file, "Select custom command" and typed the above, but nothing happened. What should I type as the custom command ?

For a start we'd need to see the errors, the script content (possibly) and the ownerships/permissions.

Thanks. When I changed the permission of the sh file to 777, it started offering me an option to execute it in the terminal. Thanks a lot.
