Running Ndn On Ubuntu Hardy

[dandv 0]

I unrared the latest NDN beta on Ubuntu Hardy, but when I execute "ndn", bash returns this error:

-bash: ./ndn: No such file or directory

 

I ran chmod+x ndn, and I really don't get what the problem is. In that directory (~/ndndir), ls -al ./ndn shows that ./ndn exists, but executing ./ndn fails with the error above. What am I missing?

 

Thanks.

Hi Dan,

 

can you post the complete directory listing?

PS:

One user recently reported to me that NDN doesn't execute.

All I was able to find was that the OS didn't even go to the entry point of the executable.

Anyone ever heard of soemthing like that?

Hi Dan,

 

can you post the complete directory listing?

 

I just extracted the RAR file. Here's the listing:

Hi again.

 

I have only one suggestion, since the listing seems absolutely ok:

try "chmod 777 ./ndn" and run ndn again.

 

Additionally, what happens if you type in "./ndn.des", which is no executable at all?

Maybe the same error?

 

Btw, as I worked on the X window crashes yesterday, I found that NDN does work without sudo.

But only if the file has the group exec bit set: -rwxr-xr--

 

I finally have fixed the crashes, I only have some problems getting the focus on all the different

terminal implementations in X. I hope to be able to upload a newer version today.

 

Bye,

Stefan / AH

Tried both but not much luck:

 

vlad@optam:~/ndndir$ chmod 777 ./ndn
vlad@optam:~/ndndir$ ./ndn
-bash: ./ndn: No such file or directory
vlad@optam:~/ndndir$ ./ndn.des
-bash: ./ndn.des: Permission denied

 

I also tried to run ndn while logged in as root, but got the same error message.

Hi Dan,

 

this is really strange...

And I don't know what else to do.

 

Maybe you might want to try another distro.

 

I don't have a clue to what might be wrong here.

 

All I can do is to try to recreate your installation path in ~/ndndir/

and try to execute NDN...

 

Let's see...

 

EDIT: not reproducable even with your installation paths...
