[xcrysden] permission errors while running xcrysden?

[Bret Hess]

1.  I have permission errors when I try running 1.5.60 after installing
that make no sense:

xcrysden: line 257:
/home/hessb/research/xcrysden-1.5.60-bin-semishared/*bin/xcrys:
Permission denied*

I am the owner of this file:
xcrysden-1.5.60-bin-semishared > ls -l bin/xcrys
-rwxr-xr-x 1 hessb hessb 901862 Jun 25  2014 bin/xcrys

Any ideas of how to fix this?

2.  Perhaps a related question.
Why won't ./xcrysden work?
xcrysden-1.5.60-bin-semishared >* ./xcrysden*
bash: ./xcrysden:

*Permission denied*
I own this file, and have done chmod +x on it:
xcrysden-1.5.60-bin-semishared > ls -l xcrysden
-rwxr-xr-x 1 hessb hessb 8463 Jun 25  2014 xcrysden

But when I run it with "bash" instead of "./", it does not have the problem:
xcrysden-1.5.60-bin-semishared > *bash* *xcrysden *

|*  XCrySDen -- (X-Window) CRYstalline Structures and DENsities  *|
|*               =         ===         =              ===        *|
It's OK until it runs into problem 1) above.

Thanks!
