ANSWERED Hummingbird 1.0.2 Raspberry Installation - Permission denied

[Arnonym2000 0]

Hi guys,

I am trying to install the new Hummingbird client on my RasPI 4 for the first time.
I followed the Installation HowTo but I cant start Hummingbird.

Everytime I try to execute, the following error message arise:

[sudo] password for XXX:
sudo: unable to execute ./hummingbird: Permission denied

The sudo password is correct and I am logged in as a root user.
PS: I am quite new to linux and Raspbian.

Thank you very much!

Does sudo date work?

Hello!

Can you please check the hummingbird file flags? An option to consider is that hummingbird lacks the x (executable) flag for other users, including the user that tries to run it, in your case (it might have happened if you have decompressed the tarball without preserving file attributes). From a terminal, after you have entered the directory where hummingbird is inside:

ls -l 

Kind regards
