please note that I'm running the command using root user

• MagePal Extensions: What is the output of ls -l bin/magento?
• Praful Rajput: Please provide execute permission to for it even for ROOT user. chmod -x bin/magento
• Ashish Raj: use like php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy The php need to be added before bin/magento

Answer 1

You can also try php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

Answer 2

Use word php before the command

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

Refer : Devdocs : static contents

Answer 3

As already mentioned in the comments:

Check the permission of the file like so:

ls -lah bin/magento

You will see that the execute permissions are missing. Therefore add the execute permissions like so:

chmod +x bin/magento

If you don't want to allow execution for that script, you can run the script with your local php installation like so:

php bin/magento ...

Nevertheless you should not run any command as root.

Answer 4

In order to fix permissions, you can run all of these commands, or at least the last two since it is not mentioned that you've configured permissions on app/:

find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find ./var -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
find ./pub/media -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
find ./pub/static -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
chmod 777 ./app/etc
chmod 644 ./app/etc/*.xml
