Im trying to download firestorm but when I try to run the install.sh it says

Invalid url: '/home/user/Downloads/Pheonix_FirestormOS-Releasex64_x86_64_5.1.7.55786/install.sh' given, exiting
No ':' in the uri

Can someone explain what this means? I already looked at this: No ':' in the url but it wasn't helpful. How do I fix this? I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.01

  • This looks like a duplicate of the question you linked, and I would imagine the solution is the same (i.e. use file:///home/user/Downloads/... instead). How was it not helpful? Commented Dec 16, 2018 at 0:27
  • I don't know what it means by that, I don't know how to get file:/// Commented Dec 16, 2018 at 1:07
  • OK, how are you running the install.sh? Commented Dec 16, 2018 at 1:08
  • Im running it using AptURL Commented Dec 16, 2018 at 1:33

It seems like the file needs execution permissions.

This is what worked for me:

  • Right click on the file, click on Properties.
  • On the Permissions tab, make sure you have checked the 'Allow executing file as program'
  • Close it and go open the file. It now runs correctly.
