Debian etch 64bit - can't start sc_serv

[jc71229]

Hi all,

I have a problem executing sc server on my debian box. The OS is 64 bit variant and unfortunatelly I can't change that.

When I try to start ./sc_serv I get:

bash: ./sc_serv: No such file or directory

Permissions are 755 and everything else looks right. What could cause this? I thought it is normally no problem to execute 32bit programs on a 64bit OS?

Thanks in advance
Jens

you are using a relative path. Navigate to the folder that you have sc_serv in and then pass the command.

This is not an error of a 64 bit vs. 32 bit OS....

im afraid its is - been running it fine on debian (32) boxes for years.. but it wont run on x86_64 GNU/Linux (ubuntu)boxes

the above error is the same as what i get.

what version of ubuntu x64 are you running (7.04)?

Have you made sure that the 32 bit libraries have been installed (usually they are not)?

[SpiderOz]

cheers.

for the above dude

apt-get install ia32-libs

I have no idea why ia32 is not installed by default on the 64 bit distros seeing as how most non-native apps need it to run.

Anyway, glad you got things working.

what threw me was the "No such file or directory"

what a stupid error..

Hi,

the ia32-libs solved it for me also, but I was wondering if there is a way to compile sc_serv in 64bit???

No. SHOUTcast is not open source.
