Am 02. Mai, 2014 schwätzte Tom Roche so: moin moin,
try the following to get more information. The first will make sure it's what you think it is, which it should be. $ type /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox* The second makes sure there aren't any extended attributes in play, which there shouldn't be. $ lsattr /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin This one will tell you which libraries ths bin wants to use, so you can see if one is missing. $ ld /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin BTW, I have a system allowing i386 to be installed, but it looks to me like the necessary libc isn't actually installed. $ dpkg --print-foreign-architectures i386 $ dpkg -l | grep 386 rc libc6-i386 2.13-0ubuntu13 Embedded GNU C Library: 32-bit shared libraries for AMD64 ii qemu-kvm 1.0+noroms-0ubuntu14.14 Full virtualization on i386 and amd64 hardware ii syslinux-legacy 2:3.63+dfsg-2ubuntu5 Bootloader for Linux/i386 using MS-DOS floppies If all that doesn't help, let us know what like 143 of /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/run-mozilla.sh is. ciao, der.hans
For background on my problem (and why I very much need to solve it), see http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=190&t=166506&p=855700#p855700 But the essence of the problem appears to be me@it ~ $ /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin bash: /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin: No such file or directory [127]me@it ~ $ lsalh /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 44K Mar 6 2012 /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin me@it ~ $ sudo /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin sudo: unable to execute /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin: No such file or directory me@it ~ $ groups me sudo staff lpadmin How is it possible that `ls` can list a file, but `bash` says "No such file"? Note that everything else seems to work on this box, which FWIW is me@it ~ $ uname -a Linux it 3.11-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.11.8-1 (2013-11-13) x86_64 GNU/Linux me@it ~ $ cat /etc/debian_version jessie/sid so it's not like the box is "just broken." FWIW, /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin is 32-bit, while the rest of the box is 64-bit. I don't see how that could cause *this* problem, but that's the only thing unusual about /usr/local/share/firefox-3.6.28/firefox-bin (of which I'm aware). desperately confused, Tom Roche <tom_ro...@pobox.com>
