How do you install sugarcrm bin file

give the following commands into a terminal (applications/accesories/terminal)

chmod u+x /home/USER/Desktop/exact_name_of_the_installer

and then

/home/USER/Desktop/exact_name_of_the_installer

this should start the installation process

NOTE: substitute USER with ur username

If I understood correctly, go into terminal which displays below:

mike-reardon@mike-reardon-laptop:~$

change directory to Desktop and get the following:

mike-reardon@mike-reardon-laptop:~/Desktop$

mike-reardon@mike-reardon-laptop:~/Desktop$ ls
Carlos sugarcrm-CE-5.1.0b-linux-installer.bin
LAPTOP bookmarks.html SugarCRM.desktop
NTFS~ tnef-plugin-0.0.0.tar.gz
Remi~ Todo~
Reminder~ winmail.dat
Skype.html
mike-reardon@mike-reardon-laptop:~/Desktop$ chmod u+x /home/USER/Desktop/exact_name_of_the_installer
chmod: cannot access `/home/USER/Desktop/exact_name_of_the_installer': No such file or directory
mike-reardon@mike-reardon-laptop:~/Desktop$ chmod u+x /home/mike-reardon/Desktop/sugarcrm-CE-5.1.0b-linux-installer.bin
mike-reardon@mike-reardon-laptop:~/Desktop$ chmod u+x /home/mike-reardon-laptop/Desktop/sugarcrm-CE-5.1.0b-linux-installer.bin
chmod: cannot access `/home/mike-reardon-laptop/Desktop/sugarcrm-CE-5.1.0b-linux-installer.bin': No such file or directory
mike-reardon@mike-reardon-laptop:~/Desktop$

At the above prompt, I type: chmod u+x in three different combinations above with no success

Are you able to review the above and tell what I may have done wrong? Thanks

Mike

Okay

I kept plugging away at it, researching the web. The following worked:

./file.bin

Now I'm in the SugarCRM dialog. Already I'm not sure if I'm installing it right. I'm going with the defaults but the SugarCRM admin install docs seem to indicate to specifically install in the webroot. The default is installing in the user directory.

I'll be back if needed be.

Thanks

what i actually ment is that u should have put mike-reardon instead of USER and sugarcrm-CE-5.1.0b-linux-installer.bin instead of exact_name_of_the_installer but since u solved the problem everything is ok :)
