    binSLASHbash: Permission denied

    I'm getting this error when trying to check my software installation. On sudo make check it fails and says that: I'm logged in as root.

    SLASHbinSLASHbash: line 8: .SLASHtest-indexer: Permission denied

    Can anybody tell me how to fix this?

    I wouldn't ask if my magic crystal ball wouldn't be broken, but you tried everything what? you just shouldn't run whatever you run there as superuser (aka root).
