I cross compiled a program on Ubuntu 12.04 running on x86 using gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
and binutils-arm-linux-gnueabi
and compiling with arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc
instead of gcc
with my target architecture being ARM. It compiles fine with no errors or warnings.
When I try to run it on the ARM machine (Pandaboard - also running Ubuntu 12.04) I get:
bash: ./sttyl: No such file or directory
I know the file is there and it has the proper permissions:
-rwxrwxr-x 1 haziz haziz 8.5K Feb 10 10:34 sttyl
The output of file sttyl
is
sttyl: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.31,BuildID[sha1]=0x6d504f7d84b93603122223a89e2b5960c840309f, not stripped
When I compile it natively on the Pandaboard it compiles and runs fine. This is the output of file sttyl
on the natively compiled copy:
sttyl: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.31,BuildID[sha1]=0x9897c785266c5b7cdf580e08091aba239db84ecf, not stripped
What am I doing wrong? Moreover if I had made a mistake in the cross compilation I would have expected the shell/kernel to tell me effectively that the executable is for the wrong architecture not that it does not exist!
