I am following the docs:
https://openacs.org/doc/current/aolserver4.html

the documentation is *not* written for postgresql 8.1.4 and
aolserver 4.5

I installed postgresql-8.1.4. everything on the
documentation is fine.But now i'm stuck at aolserver
installation. I got a permission error:

Be aware, that you have to configure postgresql to work
with openacs (see the forums)

desktop:/usr/local/src/aolserver4.5/aolserver-4.5.0# make
install
./util/nsmakeall.tcl install nsthread nsd nstclsh
make: execvp: ./util/nsmakeall.tcl: Permission denied
make: *** [install-bins] Error 127
desktop:/usr/local/src/aolserver4.5/aolserver-4.5.0#

The conservative approach is to stick for the time being with aolserver 4.0.10.

Two possible explanations for the message above:
a) nsmakeall.tcl is a tcl file. Therefore it uses a tclsh.
Is the tclsh installed correctly (exectable,
permissions)? what happens, if you type the command
above by hand, or with prepending in the command line
the tclsh you want to use?
b) Be awar, that if you work over NSFs, you have the
least permissions as root. Is the installation
on local files?
