I’ve compiled an executable from someone else’s source code but it will only run if I launch a shell and cd into the right directory and then to ./executable.name. But if i double click the executable I get this error ‘There is no application set to open the document’.
Ive tried to do sudo chmod -x executable.name but that doesn’t do it.
Does anyone recognise this problem?
I have found the problem was that there was a
.in the file name that confused the system. Ive removed the.and it runs fine now
