File not found in Linux while the file is there

Question

Aim is to run the file sendData.c with passing argument. But it shows file not found while it is already there. Let me know where it is going wrong.

root@OpenWrt:/tmp/sendData# ls -l
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            75 Dec 19 07:02 Makefile
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          5627 Dec 18 07:33 sendData.c
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         13162 Dec 18 07:33 send_Data
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         10744 Dec 20 07:46 send_Data_loop
root@OpenWrt:/tmp/sendData# ./sendData wlan0 E8:DE:27:C3:E6:07
-ash: ./sendData: not found

After running make in cross-compiler the sendData.c was generated. Now I have transferred the file in openwrt to run — Nusrat, Dec 20 '17 at 08:15

The file you want to use is called differently

# ./send_Data wlan0 E8:DE:27:C3:E6:07

I think you have a confusing naming scheme, because your .c file is named without and underscore

SOLVED Did not execute the "make" for which the sendData file was not generated in the first place.

Firstly, make your file executable: chmod +x <filename> and run command again.

You sure you are in correct directory and type correct file name? – Viktor Khilin Dec 20 '17 at 15:58
Yes, I am in the same directory with correct file name – Nusrat Dec 20 '17 at 16:01
