What happens if you run the executable from terminal?

Building without a Code::Blocks project can be unhealthy indeed...

Code
gcc -c pointers-addressof.c -o pointers-address-of.run
/pointers-address-of.run
bash: ./pointers-address-of.run: Permission denied
edward@zotac-desktop:/media/IDE/ProgrammingCode/0._Console/c_programs$ chmod + ./pointers-address-of.run
edward@zotac-desktop:/media/IDE/ProgrammingCode/0._Console/c_programs$ ./pointers-address-of.run
bash: ./pointers-address-of.run: Permission denied
edward@zotac-desktop:/media/IDE/ProgrammingCode/0._Console/c_programs$ sudo chmod -R 777 .
edward@zotac-desktop:/media/IDE/ProgrammingCode/0._Console/c_programs$ ./pointers-address-of.run
bash: ./pointers-address-of.run: Permission denied
edward@zotac-desktop:/media/IDE/ProgrammingCode/0._Console/c_programs$ ls -l
total 188.
.
.
-rwxrwxrwx 1 edward edward 16624 Jun 13 14:18  pointers-addressof
-rwxrwxrwx 1 edward edward   741 Jun  6 08:44  pointers-addressof.c
-rwxrwxrwx 1 edward edward  2648 Jun 14 17:34  pointers-addressof.o
-rwxrwxrwx 1 edward edward  2648 Jun 14 17:38  pointers-address-of.run

 

So then it's not a codeblocks issue, but compiler issue.

 I tried that.  I started a brand new c console project, and copied the contents of my file to main.c, built it and still get permission denied.

Google "GCC flags":
Code
-c
    Compile or assemble the source files, but do not link. The linking stage simply is not done. The ultimate output is in the form of an object file for each source file.
    By default, the object file name for a source file is made by replacing the suffix .c, .i, .s, etc., with .o.
Why are you trying to run the object file instead of the compiled binary? Even the file size should hint at that...

Thanks, I'll looking at what I found looking up  "GCC flags"..may take some time to look through but I'm looking.
https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2018/03/21/compiler-and-linker-flags-gcc

The compiled binary is the .run file. Please forgive the attempt at running the .o file. My analogy is it's like checking a drawer that I know nothing's in when trying to find a lost object in a household. sometimes I try that drawer anyway without any logic behind it. That's if its my drawer and my lost object.

Does codeblocks use the header files found in /usr/include or some other location?  I tried giving myself ownership with +rwx permissions to all of the /usr/include/ header files but it didn't help.

Please stop doing what you are doing. Especially giving 777 access rights to everything, 2x especially outside your personal folders.

I provided the snippet from the google search already:
Code
-c
    Compile or assemble the source files, but do not link. The linking stage simply is not done. The ultimate output is in the form of an object file for each source file.
    By default, the object file name for a source file is made by replacing the suffix .c, .i, .s, etc., with .o.

Please run the 16kb executable in the terminal, not the 2kb object file that you renamed to .run for some odd reason.

Do not mess with ownerships outside your home directory.

C::B uses the paths listed in Project -> Build options -> Search directories -> Compiler tab.

I followed your advice by making a dir ~/code and copying my .c file to it and it does run that way. Thanks.

Is there any way around this? Maybe the way my other drive is mounted in /etc/fstab?  I tried to see is I could instead use a symbolic link ~/code to get the same effect but no luck.  It would just be easier if I could keep all of my c files on my share and compile/run from there. No big deal if no one answers, I see that this isn't a gcc forum but a code::blocks one, so I'm a bit off topic now.

What is the file system of the other drive? Is it linux compatible?
If it is fat or ntfs, you're probably out of luck or at least you'll have to read about umasks during mounting.

The other drive is a NAS appliance connected via NFS.  Umasks? Ok I'll look into that, thanks.

NFS should support unix permissions, so it should be fine if you mount it correctly, but I'm not a sysadmin, so I might be wrong.

found this on another forum:

Quote
In the options, when you add user it also implies noexec.
noexec will not allow any binaries on the mounted file system to be executed.

Take a look at the mount MAN page for more information concerning the available options

I think I may be on the right track
