Sorry it's been a while. Just got back to using my system!
Anyway, when I did the
./arduino
command, I got this error:
skyler@skyler-desktop:~/Downloads/Arduino$ ./arduino
./arduino: line 35: /home/skyler/Downloads/Arduino/java/bin/java: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
and it doesn't launch. When I typed the
./install
command, I got this:
skyler@skyler-desktop:~/Downloads/Arduino$ ./install.sh

done!
an I'm now stumped. I'm pretty sure that the launching application is the one to blame, and not the install. Is there anything else I should try?
EDIT: I solved the installation issue by aforementioned above by naming the folder to a different name. Apparently some Arduino users pointed out that it isn't a smart idea to install the Arduino IDE when the name of the folder is "Arduino" or "arduino", because it apparently brings up issues with accessing certain execution files. However, I still have not been able to run the program with the standard ./arduinocommand. It now says:
skyler@skyler-desktop:~/Documents/Compiler$ ./arduino
./arduino: line 35: /home/skyler/Documents/Compiler/java/bin/java: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
again, is there anything that could work or a mistake that I am making?
P.S. I moved the Arduino files to the documents and renamed the folder "Compiler".
