|
|
Hello,
I have bought a shell-account. Now i want to install icecast on it.
But i get a error.
| Code: |
/usr/bin/install -c icecast /usr/local/bin/icecast
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/bin/icecast': Permission denied
make[3]: *** [install-binPROGRAMS] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/chroot/home/shellacc/icecast-2.3.1/src'
make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/chroot/home/shellacc/icecast-2.3.1/src'
make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/chroot/home/shellacc/icecast-2.3.1/src'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
[shellacc icecast-2.3.1]$

They told me i need to have root access to install icecast. What now?
Using centos 4.5.

They are wrong, you don't _need_ root access to install you just need root to install in the default location ie under /usr/local. You have a choice either install as root or install to a different location that you can write to, you can use configure --prefix=/place/to/install
