moved home: permission denied


Hello,

i have recently created a new partition and moved everything that was on my home on that, and i have added a new line in fstab like the following:

/dev/hda5 /home ext3 default 0 1

Everything seemed to work fine, but i have recently discovered an huge problem:

i can't run anymore programs from my home, i get a permission denied problem always .

This happens both for scripts ( eg. ./configure ) and for stand alone programs ( some programs need to be in my home )

What can i do?

Thanks in advance

ps. of course the permission are ok ( 755 )

are you sure this is the exact line in fstab ?
sounds like you added the "noexec" option either in fstab or while mounting /home

check that your permissions are ok recruisivly, the directory permisions may be ok but not the contents "man chmod" "man chown" post your fstab so we know the exact line.

i changed the file fstab.bak, there was the option user instead of default in the official one.

Excuse me...

"user" implies "noexec"
so you have to use default
