Hi guys,
I´m working on an Ubuntu based embedded system ( PCduino ), and I´m having problems to execute compilation on a GUI application ( QTcreator ), because it is presented a message box : "Error - Cannot create file XXXXX : Permission denied" during the MAKE process.
I must confess that I´m not an expert on Linux, and taking a look on the web, I found several variations of chmod command, which could change permission of the folder ( and its sub-folders ) and despite try a lot, no one retrieve desired result, holding original atributes.
In order to know if logged user was able to perform this operation, I typed whoami and as expected, gave root.
I presume that Ubuntu is not running as a super user - Is it possible ?
