run sqlplus on ubuntu 32 bit

[marchello_lippi2]

Hi all,

Trying to run sql plus and got error:

$ bash /home/user1/Downloads/instantclient_12_1/sqlplus
/home/user1/Downloads/instantclient_12_1/sqlplus: /home/user1/Downloads/instantclient_12_1/sqlplus: can not execute binary file

Thied this:
chmod 777 sqlplus

But it didn't help.

Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Desktop: Lubuntu

Any help?

What kind of file is it? Try this command (that tries to identify the file type) and post the result:

file /home/user1/Downloads/instantclient_12_1/sqlplus

[marchello_lippi2]

$ file sqlplus
sqlplus: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, not stripped

Now I guess that it is wrong platform, I should use 32-bit... But where can I get it?

Tried instantclient_11_2 version.

user@pc:~/Downloads/instantclient_11_2$ ./sqlplus
./sqlplus: error while loading shared libraries: libsqlplus.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Libsqlplus.so is a Shared Object file - equivalent of a windows DLL. It is not part of the normal Ubuntu repositories, so I don't know where you would get it from. I would have expected the sqlplus installer to install it.
