Show us the actual commands you are trying to run; letting us guess isn't going to help you. Yes, Bill is probably correct that your problem is permissions (since that is the root cause of virtually all [shell] difficulties). But without knowing what you are running, we cannot help further. FWIW, you probably don't want to use a semicolon; seperating the two commands by && will mean that the second will run iff the first ran without error (and is a much better way to handle multiple commands).
