/lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter

Running apps/binaries compiled for 32bit enviornments seems to throw up “/lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter” on a 64bit platform.

Quick noteĀ  – glibc provides the libraries required to run 32bit apps on 64bit platform, so the next time you come across this on a distro that uses the rpm package manager simply:

$sudo yum install glibc.i686
