I've tried to follow a few guides on here, and im just not sure what is problematic so far with this. I DL, install, and it seems to work fine thus far. Buuut, then i get to the running a host file portion. I navigte properly to the host file, or just type the entire path in after DreamDaemon. It looks like it runs but returns a



[1] 2500
-bash: /usr/local/bin/Dreamdaemon: no such file or directory.

The number is just an example after the [1] since it changes every time i attempt to run DD.

This seems understandable since its not located in that directory, but im not quite sure why it would install in a directory and then not properly execute along its directory path.

How did you install it?

I followed I guide on here (it was locked, and i cannot find the thread now). I downloaded and installed throughthe terminal via

wget (linux DL link)
make install

There were two methods i tried, one was a bit more complicated but produced the same results.I would browse to the folder i placed the host files in, and type

DreamDaemon (file).dmb (port) (options) &

And hit enter to produce the result. I entered the port i had set for forwarding and tried multiple option commands as I tried this various times. I put the & at the end so if it ran, it would continue to run in the background.

If anyone has a link to a good guide and the basic set up of an Ubuntu based hosting a link would be great.

If you're using a 64-bit release of Ubuntu you need to install the 32-bit libraries for DreamDaemon to work.

Try "apt-get install ia32-libs"

no such luck, that file cant be found, ill try again by reinstalling the 32 bit version of ubuntu

I'm not aware of your experience with linux, but you did run "apt-get update" first, right?
It's also perhaps(?) possible that you're running the 32-bit version of Ubuntu already?
What's the output of "cat /etc/lsb-release"?

no, i am running 12.04 64 bit currently, ill double check and try getting that 32 bit library, but im ready to install 32 bit version of ubuntu if this is what the problem i described is conflicting with.

dist. id= Ubuntu
dist. release= 12.04
dist. codename= precise
dis description = Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

You were right about the apt get udpate, i had already updated through the manager, but it downloaded a quite a lot of things. I tried again to get the la32-libs package and it is not found aka ' Unable to locate pacakge

im going to go ahead and reinstall as a 32 bit version. Ill try the same guide again, but im not sure if thats even the problem. It just seems dreamdaemon was trying to execute along a path it was not in... We'll see what happens, ill update at a later time

Installing the 32bit OS of Ubuntu 12.04 and carrying out the sames steps as before provided successful results.

Thank you all for your help and advice, i would not have thought to use the 32bit version without your input.

I had the fantest inkling and... Well... You started that with a lowercase L as opposed to an i. I wonder if you did that in the command line in the first place? :P

Yeah i had lol. I started browsing around since im trying to run the pager on ubuntu now through wine, however there are some problems.... I noticed someone put ia32-libs suggestion for someone else having a problem, with a lower case i. I thought...hey, wtf...

Apparently have a key file error through the pager on login attempts. I noticed the wine program is making a byond directory in my home folder, fairly certain it should be in the C:/ directory under wine...not sure whats going on there lol

Honestly give it up WINE is not a fan of BYOND anymore is used to work ok-ish a few years ago.

Best bet is to make a virtual machine.
#13 Jul 21 2012, 10:27 pm
I suppose so, Not sure how to do that on Ubuntu though lol Ill look around a bit and see if its something i want to get into.
#14 Jul 21 2012, 10:30 pm
It's not difficult what so ever, easier than a WINE install you will need a operating system I suggest installing something with low CPU and RAM usage like Win XP.

Ido believe there are USB. Editions of XP which might be perfect for a VM.

You then went and did an 'apt-get install ia32-libs' with the lowercase i in ia32 and lowercase l in libs, right? That should resolve your problem right there without the need for wine.

Its was resolved by installing the 32bit version of ubuntu, I said F it and waited the 2 hours for it to load and update itself, worked fine after that. I did type L in the package so it might work on a 64bit version but i had already installed 32bit by the time anyone noticed that.
