Doom 3 error when starting up


Hello everyone. I have a little problem. I downloaded the Doom 3 game, and installed how it writes. But when I type in the terminal "doom3", it gives an error:

Installation complete.
zoltan@Collateral:~$ doom3
bash: /usr/local/bin/doom3: Permission denied
zoltan@Collateral:~$

Then I tried to log in as "root" and installed it again, but it gives the same error again. So, how can I fix this problem?

Thanks, Pobednik

What is the output of 'ls -l /usr/local/bin/doom3' ?

I resolved. Just needed to log in as root, and erase all the game folder, and from the /usr/local/bin/ delete all the files, unrar the game again, and do a fresh install. Btw thanks for the response
