[OpenFOAM.org] Permission Denied when Running a batch File

leoporta98 · January 6, 2022, 13:32

I have installed OpenFoam and run a few simulations without any problems.
Today I was trying to run a batch file but it tells me "Permission Denied".
It is executable (I've done chmod +x batch.sh).
A friend of mine has tested the batch file on his PC and it works.

I really don't understand why I shouldn't have the permission.

Thanks for any kind of help!

Can you post batch.sh here.

Thank you for the reply.
This is the batch. I've tried it on an other PC and it works. I also tried to run the commands directly from the terminal and everything works fine. I don't really understand why I have no permission.

Thanks again.

Probably the directory don't have write access. Can you try putting that folder/case to some where else in your pc.
