So here's a couple of patches that introduce some more elaborate investigation into what went wrong when receiving EACCES. This is probably something that could be expanded in the future, as running a command doesn't always produce equally obvious error messages. "run-command: Add checks after execvp fails with EACCES" provides some basic checks on the permissions in PATH, and gives just a warning that none of its checks indicate a problem, so the user should check at least the interpreter permissions. "run-command: Add interpreter permissions check" actually adds interpreter checking. --- run-command.c | 172 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ t/t0061-run-command.sh | 38 ++++++++++- 2 files changed, 209 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
