Ubuntu: Running Dynamo Executable: No such file or directory

Symptom:

root@testMachine:~/iometer-2006_07_27.linux.i386-bin/src# ls
dynamo  iomtr_kstat  scripts
root@testMachine:~/iometer-2006_07_27.linux.i386-bin/src# ./dynamo
-bash: ./dynamo: No such file or directory

For this case, you need to make sure you have ia32-libs installed. To check whether the package is installed, run:

root@testMachine:/# dpkg -l ia32-libs
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name           Version        Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii  ia32-libs      20090808ubuntu ia32 shared libraries for use on amd64 and i

if it shows "un", meaning ia32-libs is not installed. If is installed, it will show "ii".

Install ia32-libs by

apt-get install ia32-libs

* Please note that, for simplicity, i using root account to run the above command, you might need to add sudo in front of the above commands if you are not using root account.
