Hi!  
I installed Atom on my Xubuntu 18.04 system and the uber-juno package as well.  
When I try to launch Julia via the Menu entry I get a permission denied error message:

![permissiondenied](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/julialang/original/3X/7/b/7b62e5872048937806b23a01773761f683876ad0.png)

The file is in my path so I can start Julia from the terminal.  
Also read+write should work:  
 ![permissions](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/julialang/original/3X/0/4/04d88ee9337b8ed367a2799c5c75ac87394a6bb8.png)

I already reinstalled Atom but this did not work.  
Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers  
Jan

You actually have to specify the path to an executable, so e.g. `/home/jnn/.julia/bin/julia`. In general, make sure you can open a terminal and type in the exact path you give julia-client.

Thanks! I did not add /julia at the end of the path. This fixed it!
