Comments: How can I run TntMPD on Linux?

The simplest thing to do is to directly replace /bin/sh with a 32-bit bash shell, which will be able to run on 64-bit Linux with (hopefully) no other unrelated issues.

Pull down the .deb file for the 32-bit bash shell:

wget us.archive.ubuntu.com/.../bash_4.3-6ubuntu1_i386.deb

I your home directory, extract it into a folder

mkdir ~/bash_4.3-6ubuntu1_i386

dpkg -x bash_4.3-6ubuntu1_i386.deb ~/bash_4.3-6ubuntu1_i386

Copy the bash script into /bin/sh

sudo mv /bin/sh /bin/sh64original

sudo cp ~/bash_4.3-6ubuntu1_i386/bin/bash /bin/sh

sudo chown root:root /bin/sh

Then run:

wine Downloads/SetupTntMPD.exe

That exact command didn’t work for me as it said it needed a Microsoft XML parser (maybe that’s an issue with , but I installed PlayOnLinux (www.playonlinux.com) to configure a Wine 1.4 setup which worked.

I also go this working as a chroot environment with Trusty 14.04 32-bit (but needed to do “mv /bin/bash /bin/sh” because the /bin/sh is symlinked to /bin/dash which is a “32 bit Shared Object” technically and so it gave an invalid EXE format message to me.

installed tntmpd 3.0 r21 on ubuntu 13.10 64 bit about 2 weeks ago.  seems to be running 100 percent ok.

installed wine and playonlinux.  used playonlinux to create a 32 bit install of wine 1.5.4

ran the installer using play on linux install a non-listed program option.

the installer downloaded all the necessary extras from the net.

that's it!  play on linux will create a desktop shortcut for you.
