In the bash shell, double check that the chimera-installer is executable with:

    ls -l chimera-installer.bin

I would expect the output to be:

-rwxr-xr-x chimera-installer.bin

If the x's are missing:

    chmod +x chimera-installer.bin

If the x's are still missing, then change your umask with:

    umask 0002

and do the chmod again.

Then run:

    ./chimera-installer.bin

And everything should be wonderful :-)

    HTH,

    Greg

Thank you for your advice,

I try as you told me but when I typed ./chimera-installer.bin , it showed that bash: ./chimera-installer.bin: No such file or directory.

My working folder is Downloads and when I typed ls, I saw chimera-installer.bin in the list.

I took a snapshot to show you. Please, help me!!!

Thank you so much,

Phi

Hi Phi,
Assuming you are in the right place (the directory or folder where the bin file is), instead of

chimera-installer.bin

try this:

./chimera-installer.bin

… which just says to use the file in the directory you’re currently in, instead of searching your paths, which might not include that directory.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
