Salome 5.1.3 on Ubuntu 9.1 - Installer won't run python

Using InstallWizard-5.1.3-Debian4.0-64 bit on Ubuntu 9.1

Installation goes OK until I hi the following error:

/tmp/INSTALLWORK2253/salome.sh: line 29: /home/scott/Salome5.1.3_debian4.0_64bit_CFDStudy2.0/Python-2.4.4/bin/python: cannot execute binary file

I resolved this by.

sudo rm /bin/sh
sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh

Found this solution in another forum.

Ignore the above post. It was for a different problem.

Thank  you.  Yes, that was the problem of getting access to the /temp directory which I also resolved by the above method.  One roadblock down only to be confronted by another!

Hello,

I get exacly the same error here, but

sudo rm /bin/sh

sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh

does not seem to solve the problem...  Any guess why, or what to do?

Thanks, 

Hello,

The same here.

It gives the same error, and I checked the file is there and it is executable.

Anyone?

Thanks a lot,

usr/bin/python2.5-dbg

usr/bin/python2.5-dbg-config

so for me i have 2 python

i run the installer by

/usr/bin/python2.4   /path_to_the_installer    and  i have no python error

check also if you have all package for your python  including developpement

hope it's can help

bonjour,

j'ai eu ce meme type d'erreur

après avoir vérifié le chemin de python ( which python), j'ai remarqué que j'avais plusieurs versions de python 2.4 et 2.5

le lancement de l'installer en précisant la version de python (2.4) ne m'a pas provoqué d'erreur du type "can't run python file"

bon courage
