Exam SK0-005 topic 1 question 146 discussion

The error message "Permission denied" indicates that the script lacks execute permission. In Linux, to execute a script, it must have the execute permission bit set. The correct command to resolve this error would be: C. chmod +x startUp.sh This command adds the execute permission (+x) to the script file "startUp.sh", allowing it to be executed.

x = excute r = read w = write

C. chmod +x startUp.sh The error message "hash: ./startUp.sh: Permission denied" indicates that the script cannot be executed because it does not have the executable permission. To resolve the issue, the administrator should use the chmod command to add the executable permission to the script. The correct command is "chmod +x startUp.sh". This will add the executable permission for the owner of the file, allowing the script to be executed at startup. The other options do not address the issue of the script not having the executable permission. chmod +w would add the write permission, but this is not necessary for a script to run. chmod 444 would add read-only permission to the owner, group, and others, but again, this is not necessary for a script to run. chmod 466 would add read and write permission to the owner and group, but this still would not allow the script to be executed.
