Question:
I downloaded rdseedv5.0 and get the error 'Command not found' when I try to run the application.
I'm running Mac OSX Version 10.6.7 and was previously running rdseed 4.7.5
user 123>rdseed.MAC.x86
rdseed.MAC.x86: Command not found.
user 101>rdseed.MAC.x86
rdseed.MAC.x86: Command not found. What am I doing wrong?
Answer:
Usually this kind of error 'Command not found' occurs because of one of two things:
1. The PATH environment variable doesn't point to the current directory. A solution is to run the routine like so (with a dot and slash before the program name):
./rdseed.MAC.x86
or 2. The rdseed.MAC.x86 file does not have the executable bit 'x' set. You can find this out by doing an:
ls -l rdseed.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 user bin 114 Jan 21 2010 rdseed.MAC.x86
-rw-r--r-- 1 user bin 114 Jan 21 2010 rdseed.MAC.x86
The fix for this is to do a
chmod +x rdseed.MAC.x86
ls -l rdseed.*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user bin 114 Jan 21 2010 rdseed.MAC.x86
