I am aware similar questions have been asked before but none of these have solved the issue I have:

I have built a very basic Unity3d program for linux but when trying to run the resulting executable I get an 'open with...' where there are no recommended applications if I double click the file in the GUI or 'Permission denied' if running through the terminal.

I have ensured the 'allow this file to run as executable' is checked and tried chmod u+x before running from the terminal.

The file extension is x86_64. My understanding is that this is 64 bit binary and my system is also 64 bit (I checked using uname -a).

If it's any help my system is running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (xfce) on an Acer Chromebook 14, installed using crouton.

I am completely new to all things linux so please say if I have missed out any important information and please explain answers in such a way a newbie can understand.

Thanks in advance to everyone!

Where is this executable file located at? If it is on a mounted partition, there could be a chance that noexec flag is set. Check to see if your workspace is under mounted drives.

$ mount | grep noexec
