Are you sure you are trying to run the right file ? What is the output of file /path/to/binary > using full path and then press the enter button. In response > I receive the the following message > "can not execute binary file" . I've never seen this error message before... but I was able to get the message by doing this.. [EMAIL PROTECTED] kingsly]$ chmod +x Invite.jpg [EMAIL PROTECTED] kingsly]$ ./Invite.jpg bash: ./Invite.jpg: cannot execute binary file [EMAIL PROTECTED] kingsly]$ > I also tried without success by copying the binary program > files in /bin directory. Working in different shell > environments such as tcsh, bsh (my default shell is bash) > etc also do not produce any positive result. Wouldn't help... as the file you are trying to execute is not an executable binary.
