Trying to compile firsttime class with quickie, from the tutorial. Getting the following error message:
Unexpected Error During Compile:

Cannot run program "/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk": error=13, Permission denied

See Max console for stack trace.

Following settings in the compile window:
Source file: /Applications/Max6/Cycling '74/java/classes/firsttime.java

Compiler command: /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk

Build Directory: /Applications/Max6/Cycling '74/java/classes

Running Max 6.0.0, OSX 10.6.8, javac 1.6.0_26

Can anyone help me with how I can set the correct permission setting?

Still haven't figured out how to set the permissions correctly. Anyway, using Eclipse it's no problem.

On which system are you working? If you are an OsX could be that you have to change the the file's permission to make it executable.

one way of setting permission on Osx is using the terminal and use the command [sudo] chmod command. The commands are mostly identical with the linux/unix commands.

here is a cheat sheet: http://ss64.com/bash/

...also on windows maybe you must run max as administrator(vista,windows 7)

I've tried setting the permission with chmod, still no luck. But when using Eclipse, all is compiling nicely. So no problem really.

I'm having exactly the same problem here, and file permissions don't seem to fix it.
