Unable to install bin files.(No such file or directory error)
- by rogerstone
I wanted to install adobe reader on my ubuntu 10.10(Maverick Meerkat).I have downloaded the file and copied it on my desktop.I had then browsed to the desktop directory through command line terminal.
I had tried all the possible combinations of the commands but still i get a "file or directory does not exist error"
roger@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ chmod a+x AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin
roger@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ sudo ./AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin
sudo: unable to execute ./AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin: No such file or directory
I tried without the sudo and this is what i get
roger@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ chmod a+x AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin
roger@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ ./AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin
bash: ./AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin: No such file or directory
The file is present in the desktop.Where am i going wrong?
P.S:This is not a duplicate of the question Cannot install .bin package on Ubuntu
