Hello every body!
I did installed Bash-shell on my hu-ux server
My system details are:

CPU Version: PA 8700 CPU Module 2.3
#uname -a
HP-UX herodot B.11.23 U 9000/800 826839601 unlimited-user license

herodot:/ #model
9000/800/A400-6X

herodot:/ #swlist -l fileset | grep -i bash
# Bash B.11.23.20.02 Bourne-Again SHell (2.05b)
Bash.BASH-RUN 2.05b Runtime for Bourne-Again SHell
Bash.BASH-SRC 2.05b Source Code for Bourne-Again Shell

herodot:/ #swlist -l fileset -a state | grep -i bash
# Bash
Bash.BASH-RUN configured
Bash.BASH-SRC configured

herodot:/ #which bash
/usr/local/bin/bash

herodot:/ #ls -l /usr/local/bin/bash
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 1639408 Mar 4 2003 /usr/local/bin/bash

herodot:/etc #more group
root::0:root
other::1:root,hpdb
bin::2:root,bin
.
?..

Problem is:
I getting ?Execute permission denied? when I try to run ?bash?!

herodot:/ #bash
sh: bash: Execute permission denied.

Wandering if there is any solution?

Thanks!

herodot:/ #/usr/local/bin/bash
sh: bash: Execute permission denied.

Re: bash

Post all details that we request, this way we can understand your problem better.

What does following commands say??

file /usr/local/bin/bash
type /usr/local/bin/bash

Do you have bash installed on some other (hp-ux) machine?? If yes compare the file sizes and cksum of both files.

Re: bash

Bahman Hedayati — Tue, 08 Mar 2005 08:55:25 GMT

Hi!
As a root executeting following.
/usr/local/bin/bash

I geting "Execute permission denied".

Yes:I did installed bash on some other (hp-ux) machines. The file size and cksum are same in both machines.

The size of /usr/local/bin/bash file is:
#ls -l /usr/local/bin/bash
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 1639408 Mar 4 2003 /usr/local/bin/bash

The cksum of /usr/local/bin/bash file is:
3667481921 1639408

You did not answer following.

type /usr/local/bin/bash
file /usr/local/bin/bash

chmod 777 /usr/local/bin/bash

Does it execute now?? Do you have tusc??

tusc -vfp "bash"

Hello!
#type /usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/bash is /usr/local/bin/bash

#file /usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/bash: ELF-32 executable object file - IA64

#chmod 777 /usr/local/bin/bash
#/usr/local/bin/bash
sh: /usr/local/bin/bash: Execute permission denied.

And I dont have "tusc".

Thanks!

I think the key output is this:

#file /usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/bash: ELF-32 executable object file - IA64

The key is the IA64 at the end. It appears that this version of bash was compiled for an Itanium processor. You are attempting to run it on a PA-RISC based machine and that will absolutely NOT work.

Even though you are running 11.23PI on this machine, the code you run must still be compiled for the specific processor type you are running on.

Itanium code will NOT run on a PA-RISC. BUT PA-RISC code can run on Itanium.

RAC_1 — Tue, 08 Mar 2005 10:56:44 GMT

I think I got it.
#file /usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/bash: ELF-32 executable object file - IA64

You need to get bash for pa-risc.

Hello guys!
Yes, you are absolutely right! My server has a PA-RISC CPU.
And the bash-software which I have is for Itanium. And this will not work!

But anyway!
Thank you so much!
IT was valuable help!

Best regards!

Can you post here the output of "cat /etc/shells" ?

Re: bash

Bahman Hedayati — Wed, 09 Mar 2005 03:50:56 GMT

Hello!

#cat /etc/shells
/usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/ksh

Thanks

/etc/shells is only used for redirection work like checking if the shell is valid for login or for ftp

When calling any shell directly from the prompt, /etc/shells doesn't play any role at all.
