[solved]Why "no such file or directory"?
I got a really strange problem when trying to install RealPlayer using console binary package.
[yeti@yetibox abs]$ ls -l
total 7644
-rwxr-xr-x 1 yeti yeti 7815081 2008-10-26 16:39 RealPlayer11GOLD.bin
[yeti@yetibox abs]$ ./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin
bash: ./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin: No such file or directory
Bash can't find the file really makes me comfused.
There's one thing that I think relates to this problem:
When executing "ls" under Emacs shell, it gives quite wired output.
[yeti@yetibox ~]$ ls
[0m[01;34mDesktop[0m [01;34mabs[0m [01;36marchives[0m [01;34mstore[0m
[m[yeti@yetibox ~]$
but no problems under xfce4-terminal:
[yeti@yetibox ~]$ ls
Desktop abs archives store
[yeti@yetibox ~]$
Any sugestions?
[solved]
The wired characters in emacs shell seem to be color control code. using "ls --color=never" can get a normal output.

./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin: ./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin: cannot execute binary file
did you make the file executable with 'chmod +x' ?

Re: [solved]Why "no such file or directory"?
Are you using x86_64? My guess is that is a 32bit binary and you have a 64bit system. Could be entirely wrong...

Re: [solved]Why "no such file or directory"?
It looks like it is:
[yeti@yetibox abs]$ ls -l
total 7644
-rwxr-xr-x 1 yeti yeti 7815081 2008-10-26 16:39 RealPlayer11GOLD.binI wonder if the file is not corrupt...

yes:
[yeti@yetibox abs]$ ls -l
total 7644
-rwxr-xr-x 1 yeti yeti 7815081 2008-10-26 16:39 RealPlayer11GOLD.bin
and the file is ok. I've tried to execute it under LiveCD environment and it goes well.
I think maybe someting wrong with my mount option. Just guess.

I don't know if it's a 32-bit binary, maybe yes. but I've successfully installed it on 64-bit fedora.
even if it's not possible to install it on 64bit Arch, why didn't it give some other errors.

Re: [solved]Why "no such file or directory"?
You can use "file RealPlayer11GOLD.bin" and look for "32" to see if it is a 32 bit binary.

Re: [solved]Why "no such file or directory"?
Ar.....yes, it's a 32bit binary:
[yeti@yetibox abs]$ file RealPlayer11GOLD.bin
RealPlayer11GOLD.bin: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, not stripped
so the problem is we can't execute 32-bit binary under 64bit archlinux?
I think this would be a bad thing since other distributions don't have this problem.

Re: [solved]Why "no such file or directory"?
Arch x86_64 is pure 64bit so does not do multilib by default like many other distros do. Look at the wiki for ways of running 32bit programs (lib32/chroot).
