Bad Interpreter' error during linux install

by Frankie East · in ThinkTanks · 10/15/2006 (10:32 am) · 3 replies

I am trying to get a linux ThinkTanks server set up. The download .bin for linux when run uncompresses itself and says that's fine then moves to the next part and complains about a 'bad interpreter'

Any ideas?

What linux distro are you on?

I download the file save it /home/nuts
use a terminal and sh thinktank.bin (or whatever the file name is)
this should then bring up a gui to help out, if not your terminal window should have some info. I would copy and paste that info here. hope that helps

Fedora 5, but if it brings up a GUI then that may be the problem. I am remoting through ssh to setup a 4-way dual core opteron box to feed my addiction. As I do not have linux at the house so I cannot forward the X display to home. Is a gui required for setup? That would bite for putting this on real servers.

No you don't need to have a gui installed. I have been able to get TT to go on servers in data centers in the past. Sad part is I can not remember how I did it. I remember having to use wget to get it then downloading and then having to add/update some files. Then I had to do a little cp'ing but it did go and work nice. Never had the bad interperter issue though, sorry.
