[Chimera-users] Problem in installing Chimera in Linux

[Greg Couch]

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
