Instaling and Using IsiloXC in linux

[fbarcelo]

I download the http://www.isilox.com/download/dl/iSiloXC401386.zip file
After unzip it i get 3 files iSiloXC, license.txt and readme.txt

the readme file have no instructions for linux, so I try to give executable permissions to the iSiloXC file just assuming that is a binary file, like it seems to be, but I can't excecute it even logued as root I have a Denied permission message.

What are im doing wrong?

My linux is a Debian unestable distribution

Thanks

I believe the initial problem (iSiloXC not having the executable bit set) is a limitation of the .zip file format. You are correct in stating that you must change this by hand (e.g., `chmod ugo+x iSiloXC` from the command line).

What does the file's permissions look like, now? (`ls -l iSiloXC`)

How are you trying to run it? Have you tried using the full path (e.g., `~/downloads/iSiloXC` or `./iSiloXC`) to make sure you are not attempting to use a different copy of iSiloXC on your system?
