hadoop single node setup bash: bin/hadoop permission denied

I have an error when trying to setup a single node hadoop cluster at the step of formatting namenode.

The command:

bin/hadoop namenode -format

The error:

bash: bin/hadoop : permission denied

I tried this on ubuntu 12.10, 12.04, 11.04 and got the same error for all.

What can I do?
