Permission denied for build.sh file

/home/travis/build.sh: line 59: ./build.sh: Permission denied. 

The command \"./build.sh --quiet verify\" exited with 126. 

Answer 1

Run the script using bash

Another option would be to run the script using bash, this would omit the need to modify the files' permissions.

bash path/to/file.sh

Alternatively:

sh path/to/file.sh

---

Note that

In this case you're not executing the script itself, you're executing bash or sh which then runs the script. Therefore the script does not need to be executable.

Make sense?
