Re: `ls` shows file, `bash` says "No such file" ???
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_Roche@pobox.com>
