Dear Tri,
 
I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish here? Everything in Amber 8
should be compiled via Makefiles - you need read and write access to the
directories and files. Permissions on individual files should be set
automatically as part of the untarring process. It looks to me like you have
an incomplete copy of amber 8 and/or the user you are trying to build as
does not own the files.
 
Delete your amber8 tree completely.
 
Then start with a brand new copy of amber8.tgz from the CD and untar this.
Obtain the bugfixes from the amber website and apply these and then try
repeating the compilation process. If you still have problems please post
the errors, machine specs, compilers and your config.h file.
 
All the best
Ross

Subject: AMBER: Error in installing amber8 on Ubuntu

Dear amber users,
I've an error when install amber8 on Ubuntu.
When I didn't allow the Makelist file (at $AMBERHOME/src/lib) to be execute,
I've this error:

cd addles; make install
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/sakura/amber8/src/addles'
cd ../lib; ./Makelist ../lib/random.o ../lib/mexit.o ../lib/nxtsec.o
/bin/sh: ./Makelist: Permission denied
make[1]: *** [libobj] Error 126
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sakura/amber8/src/addles'
make: *** [serial] Error 2

When I did allow the Makelist file to be execute, the error said that:

cd addles; make install
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/sakura/amber8/src/addles'
cd ../lib; ./Makelist ../lib/random.o ../lib/mexit.o ../lib/nxtsec.o
/bin/sh: ./Makelist: not found
make[1]: *** [libobj] Error 127

Thank for your helping.
