Can't execute downloaded binary: No such file or directory

[Mark]

When I have downloaded the file for evaluation of a Vividata product on Linux Cannot execute binaries (No such file or directory)
You may need to install ia32-libs-multiarch.
Do this: #sudo apt-get install ia32-libs-multiarch

It then runs and installs various 32-bit support packages.
My OS at the moment is Linux on Intel x86 Ubuntu 12.0.4 with updates through Jan. 2, 2013

Is this Ubuntu only problem, or all linux?

(This advice is for those using x86_64 Linux)
you may also need to do:

apt-get install  multiarch-support ia32-libs

Of course apt-get is only for Debian and Debian-derived systems, ie Ubuntu, Mint, etc.

For 64-bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS, and Fedora. etc:

yum install compat-libstdc++-33.i586 gtk+.i586 gtk2.i586
or for later version of the system:
yum install compat-libstdc++-33.i686 gtk+.i686 gtk2.i686

64-bit installation of OpenSUSE 11
yast -i gtk2-32bit

This is what I'm told, although I have not tested those others.

on debian I also had to do

sudo apt-get install g++-multilib
