Help With Running MXServer on Debian Server (Jessie)

Post by EthanLindley »

Hi,

I'm not sure how to run a server on my Debian 8 VPS hosted with OVH. There seems to be no documentation in both the README.txt and the forums. Could anyone possibly lead me in the right direction? I've already tried running

Code: Select all

chmod +x mxserver
and then running

Code: Select all

./mxserver
although that doesn't work.

Thanks,
Ethan

The mxserver binary is 32 bit, so if you're on 64 bit Debian you'll need to install the 32 bit C library. I don't run Debian, but here's a guess for what you'd have to do:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get install glibc:i386

Well, glibc didnt show up as a package so a quick search on Google returned this: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/libc6-i386

Running

Code: Select all

sudo-apt get install libc6-1386
solved the issue for me. Thanks for the help!
