[SOLVED] cannot execute binary file / humble bundle

I'm having trouble executing a number of games I've downloaded via Humble Bundle. One game, for example, I downloaded as "supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin". Here are some of the outputs I get while attempting to execute:
$ bash supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin
supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin: supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin: cannot execute binary file
$ sh supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin
supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin: supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin: cannot execute binary file
$ ./supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin
bash: ./supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin: No such file or directory
I'm getting the same scenario from a number of other games so I suspect the issue to be with either my environment or my approach.
My architecture is x86_64
I'd be more than happy to supply any additional environmental information
Thanks archers

More likely you're trying to use a 32 bit file without having the ia32 libraries.
Please execute
file supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin
and check if reports ELF 32-bit something. In such case please enable the multilib repository from /etc/pacman.conf and install the lib32 packages (surely the lib32-glibc and maybe others).
Hint: a supermeatboy package exists in the AUR but I've never used it.
$ file  supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin
supermeatboy-linux-06072012-bin: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped
multilib is enabled and I installed lib32-glibc-2.18-8 succesfully, however am getting the same issue. I see whole a lot of different lib32 packages available, are there maybe some more I should try?
Worth noting that I do have all of the depencies installed that AUR suggests supermeatboy uses
I suppose I could install via pacman, but this wouldn't solve the issue for the few other games with the same errors. I'm mostly just looking to learn how to make it work
Thanks for reply!

  • /usr/bin/ld: CANNOT EXECUTE binary file!

    So whenever I try to compile something, I get to the step
    checking for gcc... gcc
    checking for C compiler default output file name...
    configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
    See `config.log' for more details.
    And looking at the log, my problem is...
    /usr/bin/ld: /usr/bin/ld: cannot execute binary file
    Which... Is bad. Yes, I've tried chmodding it +x. I've also tried logging in as root and trying to run it, no luck.
    What's wrong? =/
    Would asking someone else with an iMac G5 to send me theirs, fix it?

    Running configure on all open source packages brings me to the ld cannot execute error in configure.log. In this case I was attempting to build libssh2 (SSH functions for PHP).
    Thanks for the link Nils, I'll try that.

    If you are wiling to share one of these files via Dropbox, I have a few old Macs floating around that I can use to figure out what files these are, if they are not corrupted during the copying process.
    Have you tried OpenOffice or LibreOffice?
    If you can see the dates on these files, you can also try looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_word_processors to see what could have been used.

  • Cannot Execute .java File..

    Hi,i'm really confused about this..it's so weird..
    i'm trying to execute (.java) file from another directory, but
    it can't,why? if i just compile that file from another directory
    there's no problem with that...
    ex : i have file named Hello.java which i save it on C:\Work
    i compile this file like this :
         C:\javac C:\Work\Hello.java
    there's no problem when i compile that file, but when i try to
    execute that file i got this messages :
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: C:\Work\Hello
    this is how i execute that file : C:\java C:\Work\Hello
    if i execute like this : C:\Work\java Hello, there's no problem..
    Why (.java) file cannot be execute from another directory...
    Thanks a lot..

    It considers the pathname to be part of the class name when you do it like that, and since you don't have a class named C:\Work\Hello (and can't, since you can't use colons or backslashes in the name), that's not gonna happen.
    Try this:
    java -classpath C:\Work\ Hello
    Note the space between C:\Work\ and Hello. Hope that helps :)

  • [Solved]Cannot execute i3 window manager

    I installed i3 tiling window manager along with kde(kde could be executed),and follow the step written in i3's wiki:
    Edit ~/.xinitrc and add:
    exec i3
    exec i3 -V >>~/.i3/i3log >&1
    and cp /etc/i3/config ~/.i3/config,after these steps I still cannot execute i3 wm, could anyone tell me what I missed?
    appreciate your reply.

    You should add just one of the above exec statements by the way, and it should be on the last line in ~/.xinitrc. The second line is preferred if you want to log messages from i3 while it's running. To start a window manager manually from a console use
    xinit /full/path/to/i3
    Thank you,it seems worked.

  • [Solved] cannot open package file

    Hi All,
    I tried to install deluge with yaourt but I got this message "cannot open package file". I then built it from AUR and got this:
    [root@cwa a]# pacman -U deluge-svn-5088-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
    loading package data...
    error: 'deluge-svn-5088-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz': cannot open package file
    Does anyone have a clue for me. I have built other programs with no problem using yaourt.
    Thanks,

    What is the version number in AUR? I guess yaourt is not capable for svn-versions and makepkg's "automagically change version numbers of svn-packages"-feature. It tries to open another file. Please try to build without using yaourt.

    Alright, thanks for the help all.
    If ". <executable>" is wrong though, why did it say "cannot execute" and not just "command not found" as it usually does when one tries to use a non existent command?
    is builtin bash command. Here is copypaste from man bash:
    . filename [arguments]
    source filename [arguments]
    Read and execute commands from filename in the current shell environment and return the exit status of the last command executed from filename. If filename does not contain a slash, file names in PATH are used to find the directory containing filename. The file searched for in PATH need not be executable. When bash is not in posix mode, the current directory is searched if no file is found in PATH. If the sourcepath option to the shopt builtin command is turned off, the PATH is not searched. If any arguments are supplied, they become the positional parameters when filename is executed. Otherwise the positional parameters are unchanged. The return status is the status of the last command exited within the script (0 if no commands are executed), and false if filename is not found or cannot be read.

  • Command not found on running binary files.

    I have a very strange problem with my new arch installation, which I never faced on other linux installations/distros.
    I'm trying to execute binary files from android-sdk, which I have them from other distros and always worked, and I get always "command not found" message. For e.g I tried to run adb(5 different files from different places), from terminal and from the folder in which is each and all times I get "command not found" message.
    Some other work though, as eclipse binary. All files I've tried worked fine, and also work fine if I run them from Ubuntu installation.
    I had this problem and for some newly isntalled packages too, as packagkit, and rutorrent. Packagekit worked after a reboot, but rutorrent gives same message.
    Any help?
