Problem executing files w/ sticky bit set
Hi,
Didn't know which list this belonged to, so I posted to both.
I am writing a custom task to compile Progress 4GL code on Solaris 8. I kept getting these weird IOException's, <executable path> not found.
First I thought I'd mistyped the path but a ls -l on a cut and paste of the executable path confirmed that I was using the correct path. Did a little more poking around and noticed that the file in question has "-rwsr-xr-x" permissions and is owned by root. Files in the same directory w/ the normal "-rwsr-xr-x" perms work fine from my task. I am running as the "progress" user. I can execute this program from the command line as the progress use w/ no problem.
I'm admittedly a little fuzzy on the use of the sticky bit and this may be a due to my lack of UNIX godliness as opposed to an Ant issue but any input would be greatly welcomed.
Erich

Just noticed that I botched my post. The "normal" perms I mention should
read "-rwxr-xr-x"...
