Problem running Primo on Ubuntu VM
What am I doing wrong? When I double-click on "primo", it won't start and I keep getting a file with a long name ending with "(invalid encoding)". Can someone please help me? I'm running VirtualBox with Ubuntu 64-bit version 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat). Do I need to upgrade to a newer version, or is it a memory error?

Here's a shot of the error.
I don't understand this file. It has a Unicode name to it. Can someone help? I tried upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04, but that didn't work.

Primo for linux runs fine when started from a command line. (Maybe double-clicking works, I've never tried it. Maybe it is not even supposed to work.)
Open a terminal. cd to the folder where you have unpacked primo. Type ./primo & then use the GUI. |

I get a "cannot execute binary file" error followed by "Exit 126".

I tried that, didn't work. However, it didn't produce an error message either.

Do you mean that after doing chmod, you retried Primo, which didn't work but didn't produce the same error as last time? Last fiddled with by Dubslow on 2012-07-02 at 21:00 |

Do

First option: "Linux starate38-VirtualBox 2.6.38.15-generic #61-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 12 19:15:11 UTC 2012 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux"
I think i386 might be 32-bit, but I don't know for certain. Second option: "Not a dynamic executable" Last fiddled with by Stargate38 on 2012-07-02 at 21:18 |

Yep, looks like 32-bit. There exists only a 64-bit primo binary - and it will not run, obviously.
You may want to get a 64-bit image (of Ubuntu) and load it into VM, and then retry primo in it. Last fiddled with by Batalov on 2012-07-02 at 21:25 |
