New subject: 32 bit applications on 64 bit machine

7 Feb 2008


      Hi,
The command ldd returns
$ ldd ./a.out 
/usr/bin/ldd: line 161: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: cannot execute binary file
        not a dynamic executable
and 
$ ls -l /lib/ld-linux.so.2 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jan 31 16:57 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -> ld-2.5.so
The compat packages are installed (yum install compat*)
Any suggestion how can I fix this problem.
Thanx
s

Hi 
people,
...
I 
have 
a 
64 
bit 
Centos 
machine. 
My 
problem 
is 
that 
I 
can't 
run 
32 
bit
...
applications 
on 
that. 
I 
can 
compile 
with 
the 
32 
bit 
option 
my 
sources,
...
but 
when 
I'm 
trying 
to 
run 
them 
I 
obtain 
the 
following 
error 
message:
...
-bash: 
./a.out: 
cannot 
execute 
binary 
file
...
And 
the  
file 
a.out 
returns 
the 
following:
...
a.out: 
ELF 
32-bit 
LSB 
executable, 
Intel 
80386, 
version 
1 
(SYSV), 
for
...
GNU/Linux 
2.6.9, 
dynamically 
linked 
(uses 
shared 
libs), 
for 
GNU/Linux
...
2.6.9, 
not 
stripped
$ 
ldd 
./a.out
should 
list 
any 
required 
.so 
libraries
it says
$ ldd ./a.out 
/usr/bin/ldd: line 161: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: cannot execute binary file
        not a dynamic executable
