Problem running Twonky Media on Ubuntu Server 8.10

[nixiepixel]

Hello, I recently tried to install Twonky Media version 5.0 on Ubuntu Server 8.10. I followed both the manual installation instructions and the script installation instructions, and I am having the same error each time.

Whenever I try to run the twonkymedia .sh file or run the twonkymedia file it tells me that there is "no such file or directory." I changed the permissions to be 777 to ensure there was no permissions problem, and tried using both a fully qualified path (i.e. /home/nixie/.twonkymedia/twonkymedia) and ./twonkymedia, but none of it works, it keeps telling me it does not exist, even though it does.

Can anyone tell me why Ubuntu Server insists that these files do not exist when I try to run them?

Thanks!

Did you install 32bit or 64bit Ubuntu? If you installed 64bit, then you need to install ia32libs package.

It's documented here:

Thank you for the response. Yes, I did install the 64-bit version of Ubuntu Server, and I do have the 32-bit libraries installed. So unfortunately that isn't the issue (or it would be a quick fix!).

Thanks!

If you did try and run twonky using what you typed in above, /home/nixie/.twonkymedia/twonkymedia, the period in front of the first twonkymedia should not be there. Try ./home/nixie/twonkymedia/twonkymedia, moving the period at the start.
