WebSphere Application Server Liberty profile server package command creates a compressed file with non-executable scripts in the bin directory

Troubleshooting


Problem

If you use the []server package[] command to create a compressed file including scripts in the []wlp/bin[] directory, those scripts cannot be executed succesfully on a non-Windows platform. For example, running the []wlp/bin/server[] command returns a []Permission Denied[] message.

Resolving The Problem

You can change the permission of files in the wlp/bin directory manually using the following script:

chmod +x wlp/bin/*

However, you must make sure this operation does not introduce other potential security issues.
