I want to install ZLIB in the Linux server. My server account is: /home/myname . I download and extract ZLIB on my account properly. Then, I enter to ZLIB1.2.6 folder and run the command:

./configure –prefix=/home/myname/zlib

But, it gives error:

-bash: ./configure: Permission denied

Can anybody help me why is this happening ?

    Ok, if you are using Debian, you should do:

    su
    

    to become root

    apt-get update
    

    to refresh the package lists, then

    apt-cache search zlib
    

    to check the relevant packages in the lists you have just updated, then

    apt-get install <whatever_package_you_found_earlier>
    

    I suggest using regular expression as search strings for apt-cache, since they are more accurate, as in

    apt-cache search ^zlib
    

    to return only package names starting with zlib
