Error installing jmf-2_1_1e-linux-i586.bin

Question

h3. Hello,
h3.
I'm trying to install jmf-2_1_1e-linux-i586.bin on a Linux(centos 5.1) system. I get the results at the end of this post after accepting the license agreement. I haven't found anything on the web or the bug database that has been helpful. I'm really at my wits end and could use a helping hand.
h3.
Thanks in advance.

Hey Eran,
I guess, you can find the solution to your problem here:

It works well on Ubuntu, but since the error on Ubuntu looks exactly the same as on Centos, I think it should work for you as well.
Cheers,
