Acces denied after compiling and running.

(1/1)

OmnificienT:
Hello,

I take the following steps:
-I open up C::B
-I click new, empty file.
-I enter a simple hello world program.
-I click Build and run.
-I see a little terminal saying:

--- Code: ---sh: /home/pim/C/helloworld/test: Permission denied

Press ENTER to continue.

--- End code ---

What is my mistake here? I'm rather new to linux, so please (if you are able) clearly describe what I need to do.

Thank You,

OmnificienT

Note: I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 with gcc.

OmnificienT:
Hello again,

It seems the problem was solved by saving the file as "test.c". I'd still like to know why acces was denied earlier though.

Thank you.

You know that "test" is a reserved "system" command under linux/unix? Don't use this as a name! You sure will get into trouble sooner or later if you do so...
