[Solved] Run 32 bit binary file in 64 bit system

I have a 64 bit system and I have to run to a 32 bit binary file as its not available in 64 bit.
But each time I try to execute it, this error pops up.

 $ ./crclient 
 bash: ./crclient: No such file or directory

I know for sure that it's present in the current directory and that it is executable by the current user.

Can someone help me?

You'll need at least https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core … b32-glibc/ - that said, there're probably more packages you need and they reside in the Multilib repo

While multilib is necessary, the quoted error message is not what I'd expect if that were the only problem.  I don't have any 32-bin binaries to test though.

If insalling multilib packages does not resolve the issue, please post the output from the following:

stat crclient 
file crclient

@Trilby, bash does that if you don't have a 32bit ld-linux.so (and yes, it's terribly misleading)

Thanks, this made mine tick. lib32-glibc was all it took.
   
NB: I already had multilib enabled in the first place.
