          You're doing it wrong.



          $ echo 'date +%T' >> /tmp/Temp_date && chmod +rx /tmp/Temp_date && /tmp/Temp_date
          08:32:18



          • You need to add + sign before rx.

          • You need to add + sign before %T to ensure it recognized by date.

          • With all command fail, meaning you have not add content to file named midate on /tmp, that's why bash refuse to execute. As it was not valid script.

          • Can we be sure the OP intended +rw (rather than =rw for example)? Also AFAIK space after the redirection operator is optional.
