[gradsusr] Can't open .nc file in Grads in Linux machine!

[Mohsen Soltani]

Dear Mahakur,

I did it as follows:
********************************************
mohsen at mohsen-M68M-S2P:~$ ls
 bin hgt.nc  slp.nc
mohsen at mohsen-M68M-S2P:~$ cd bin/
mohsen at mohsen-M68M-S2P:~/bin$ ls
bufrscan   font2.dat  grads  gxeps   INSTALL  tables
COPYRIGHT  font3.dat  grib2scan  gxps    lowres   udunits.dat
font0.dat  font4.dat  gribmap    gxtran  mres     wgrib
font1.dat  font5.dat  gribscan   hires   stnmap
mohsen at mohsen-M68M-S2P:~/bin$ chmod 700 *
mohsen at mohsen-M68M-S2P:~/bin$ grads
bash: /home/mohsen/bin/grads: cannot execute binary file
Or:
mohsen at mohsen-M68M-S2P:~/bin$ ./grads
bash: ./grads: cannot execute binary file
mohsen at mohsen-M68M-S2P:~/bin$
********************************************
The interesting thing is that, after typing "chmod 700 *" , which changes
access rights for a file, when I'm typing "gra..." and hitting the Tab, the
rest of the word - which is grads - is typing automatically, while it was
impossible before. It means that, I think, it can reads the file well, but
I wonder why it can't execute/run it!
************

Have you any idea?
