Cause
The WAAE installer will extract temporary files to the directory specified by the $TMPDIR variable. If the variable is not set, the installer will extract the temporary files to /tmp by default. Some of the temporary files are shell scripts that the install will execute to perform certain tasks. If /tmp or the directory to which the $TMPDIR variable is pointing are mounted in NOEXEC mode, the installer will fail with a permission error when it tries to execute one of these temporary shell scripts.

Resolution
Prior to executing the "wa_setup.sh" install script, ensure that the directory to which $TMPDIR is set, or /tmp, are not mounted in NOEXEC mode.
Use 'mount |grep $TMPDIR' or 'mount |grep /tmp to check the exec status of the temporary directory that will be used.
