Description:
In 5.1 and next-mr the scripts like mysqlhotcopy are executable, means the execute bit is set. This is NOT the case in trunk-bugfixing. 

How to repeat:
Look into the scripts directory after having made all.

Suggested fix:
Set the execute bit as in 5.1

Thank you for the report.

Verified as described, although in my case same problem exists in mysql-next-mr

Also after `make install` mysql-test-run.pl in the installation directory has no execution bit. This is very annoying.

      Patch for bug#52913: Inserted check if mysqlhotcopy script is existing as requested by review. DIsabled the test until bug#54129 will befixed.
[4 Jun 2010 9:45] Horst Hunger
Please, enable mysqlhotcopy_myisam and mysqlhotcopy_archive after having fixed this bug.

The state was set due to a patch for bug52913. I set it back.

Noted in 5.5.6 changelog.

For distributions built with cmake rather than the GNU autotools,
some scripts were built without the execute bit set.

Setting report to Need Merge pending push to 5.6.x.

mysqlhotcopy* still fails.

Disabled due to this test.
[8 Sep 2010 14:26] John Embretsen
mysqlhotcopy is a Perl script requiring the DBD::mysql and DBI Perl modules. These Perl modules are not necessarily installed (or a very old version is installed) on the Pushbuild hosts, as indicated by the following failure from mysql-trunk-bugfixing:

CURRENT_TEST: main.mysqlhotcopy_archive
install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't locate DBD/mysql.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /net/astra04/export/home2/bteam/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.4/sun4-solaris-64int /net/astra04/export/home2/bteam/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.4 /net/astra04/export/home2/bteam/perl/lib/site_perl /usr/perl5/5.8.4/lib/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/5.8.4/lib /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/perl5/site_perl /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4 /usr/perl5/vendor_perl .) at (eval 6) line 3.
Perhaps the DBD::mysql perl module hasn't been fully installed,

There are other kinds of symptoms relating to Perl modules as well.
Ideally such a test should be skipped automatically if the required Perl modules are not found.

In addition, it is impossible to run the mysqlhotbackup tests properly on systems with Perl (and required modules) installed in other locations than /usr/bin/perl. The --exec commands in the tests may be tweaked to allow for this.

I suggest opening up another bug report for these issues, if the issues with missing execute bits are fixed.

John,
please don't reopen a patched bug.
Alexey is telling me that he tried to address your request, but was unable to come up with anything quick.
Please file this request as a separate bug.
[16 Sep 2010 12:13] John Embretsen
For the record, I did not re-open this bug, someone else did.

I have opened Bug#56817 for the remaining issue of the test failing due to missing perl modules.

Note that the mysqlhotcopy tests are disabled and/or listed as experimental in most branches listing this bug as a reason. The real reason is most likely Bug#56817.
