VMWare Image Need Help

[moonscapex]

I have been using the VMware dev platform for a while and it was working great, until today.  Now, when i type 'make zip', i get this error:

/bin/sh: line 2: /home/user/rockbox/tools/buildzip.pl: Permission denied
make: *** [zip] Error 126

Does anyone know how to fix this?

You were probably compiling as root before, try doing

Code: [Select]

cd /home/user && sudo chown -R user:user rockbox

(I'm not sure whether the VMWare image has sudo, if not try

Code: [Select]

su
cd /home/user && chown -R user:user rockbox

)
