Encountered permission denied error when compile pytorch on linux.

[zhonhel]

I follow the descriptions on here: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch#from-source to compile the pytorch on linux.
I compiled in a conda env.
But I encountered a permission denied error. The log is:

Can anyone help me? Thank you very much~

Could you check the file permissions in pytorch/third_party/nccl/nccl/src/collectives/device/?
It seems gen_rules.sh is not executable using your current user.

Thanks a lot!
It is this problem.
That is because my source code is copied from Windows.
I execute:

chmod 777 -R {pytorch_source_dir}

solved this problem.

And I encountered another problem soon afterward:

/bin/sh: ./gen_rules.sh: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

I searched on the Internet, and find this problem is also due to copying source code from Windows. And the solution in this blog solved this problem. https://blog.csdn.net/heatdeath/article/details/79463011

That's good to hear!
Feel free to close this issue, if it was solved. ;)
