File is not executable after installing with install4j

I'm trying to make an installation file of some eclipse package for linux. I specified in install4j that i want to use external launcher (the one that comes with eclipse). After the installation i can't execute the launcher. In the file properties->permissions i see that "allow executing file as program" is turned off. When i turn it on everything works. Is there any way to make it executable without interfering after installation?

Thanks.

You can also select the file in the Distribution Tree (From the Files Tab/pane), right click it, select "edit entry" to open the dialog, go to install options and update the Unix mode to what you want.

You can add a "Set the UNIX access mode of files and directories" action to the Installation screen of the installer on the Installer->Screens & Actions tab to change the permissions of the external executable.
