'No such file or directory' error in bash, but the file exists?

Solution 1:

It's an executable file that misses required libraries. Use ldd to see what it needs, then provide these files.

Solution 2:

Android SDK requires 32-bit libraries. You probably are on 64-bit and need the 32-bit libs. Here are the troubleshooting directions from developer.android.com

For Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) and above, install the libncurses5:i386, libstdc++6:i386, and zlib1g:i386 packages using apt-get:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 zlib1g:i386

For earlier versions of Ubuntu, install the ia32-libs package using apt-get:

apt-get install ia32-libs

Solution 3:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc6-i386

is also need for me.

Solution 4:

I was also seeing the same after switching my machine from 32 bit ubuntu to 64 bit. Bash would report 'No such file or directory' of files that clearly existed with the execute attribute.

sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc6-i386

Fixed the problem. These are the "GNU C Library: 32-bit shared libraries for AMD64"

Seems like this is a bug in bash. Note that I also changed the default shell from dash to bash using

sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash

before I tried running the 32 bit executable. So I'm not sure if the problem would have happened with the default dash shell

Solution 5:

On a fresh Xubuntu 13.10 x64 install I got adb to run with:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc6-i386
sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386

And also zlib1g:i386 to make aapt work.

and if you still miss something use:

lld adb
