Re: installing Maple 7 under Woody
Hi,
it looks like a problem with the script. seems like it is written using sh
shell. default shell I guess on linux is bash.
have a look at Readme.txt and see what it says.
if that doesnt help, just post the code of shell script. we could look at
it and try to fix it.
seems like changing the shell interpreter to bash might fix it, but again
have to look at the commands in it to see if they will work in bash.
regards,
Sanjay

Hello all...
I'm new to this list, and relatively new to Debian.
I'm still exploring and finding new and exciting
things in the distro. MUCH better than anything I've
seen from Red Hat.
Anyway... I need to install Waterloo Maple 7(TM) on my
system, but seem to be having trouble. I've attached
a typescripts of the session in which I tried to
install. I just don't understand why I'm getting
"permission denied" for root to run an install script.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thank you in advance,
