CircleCI permission denied running bash script

Assuming you have already checked it in, use this command to flag it as executable to git:

git update-index --chmod=+x script.sh

reference: https://www.pixelninja.me/make-script-committed-to-git-executable/

Several possible problems:

deploy.sh might not be marked as executable (chmod +x deploy.sh would fix this)
The first line of deploy.sh might not be a runnable shell...

If the first doesn't work, can we please see the contents of deploy.sh?

I was having the same issue. I added sh to the front of my commands section to get it to work.

deployment:
  production:
    branch: "master"
    commands:
      - sh ./deploy.sh

Hopefully that fix saves everyone sometime going forward.
