Emscripten "Permission Denied" even when I sudo enmake
emmake, emscripten, llvm, makefile
Solution
`emmake` expects the `make` executable as parameter, not `Makefile`. Just try `../emmake make`.
Problem
I'm playing around with emscripten and I keep getting this confusing message ``` |[413077]-$>../emmake Makefile Error: Exception thrown when invoking Popen in make with args: "Makefile"! Traceback (most recent call last): File "../emmake", line 24, in <module> shared.Building.make(sys.argv[1:]) File "/Users/jkirchartz/Dropbox/emscripten/tools/shared.py", line 670, in make Popen(args, stdout=stdout, stderr=stderr, env=env).communicate() File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 679, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1249, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied ``` but even if I use `sudo` I get the same error: ``` |[254829]-$>sudo !! sudo ../emmake Makefile Password: Error: Exception thrown when invoking Popen in make with args: "Makefile"! Traceback (most recent call last): File "../emmake", line 24, in <module> shared.Building.make(sys.argv[1:]) File "/Users/jkirchartz/Dropbox/emscripten/tools/shared.py", line 670, in make Popen(args, stdout=stdout, stderr=stderr, env=env).communicate() File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 679, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1249, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied ``` I'm on the sudoer's list, I have root access... but no matter what I do I get permission denied. Any ideas?
