I'm trying to install a program, with extension *.linux64
. I'm using a linux machine with x86-64 architecture.
However, when I run ./program.linux64
, I receive:
./program.linux64: Exec format error. Binary file not executable.
I changed the file permissions to chmod 777
thinking that the problem were the permission, thus now with ls -l
, I have:
-rwxrwxrwx .... program.linux64
But I still have the same error; how can I install this program?
NOTE: the file is not compressed (I cannot unzip or tar it)
UPDATE (from comments):
Running file
on it says it's "data":
$ file program.linux64
program.linux64: data
Running hexdump -C program.linux64 | head -8
, it returns:

There's little hope if evenfind
doesn't recognize it. But you could try adding the output ofhd program.linux64 | head -8
to your question, maybe someone could give you a hint (Notice:| head -8
instead of-n128
since the first page may be all zeros)

@mosvy I don't know why but I don't have thehd
command in the machine. I update the question with the result ofhexdump -C program.linux64 | head -8

When file
says it's data (you've posted in a comment that it does), it basically means that it's not a file that file
recognises, especially it's not an executable or compressed with an known (to file
) algorithm. You'll have to go back to where you got that file and see if they have any instructions.
