  • Hi there, can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong please.
    This is my first experience with oscam, i have it installed and working with my smartcard reader on ubuntu 10.4
    set up as a proxy for cccam.
    This is going to sound stupid but i have downloaded version oscam-svn5944-x86_64-pc-linux-webif-ssl-libusb-pcsc-Distribution, extracted the binary file, went to usr/local/bin directory in terminal and killed current oscam version, put it in the backup folder and then renamed the new oscam-svn5944-x86_64-pc-linux-webif-ssl-libusb-pcsc-Distribution as "oscam"
    Then went to terminal to restart it and it says "cannot execute binary file" .
    I know it's probably something stupid but i can't find the answer,lol.


    Can anyone help me.
    Thanks in advance ,
    Allan.

  • tried that , put the new oscam in and went to usr/local/bin via terminal after giving myself admin privilages via sudo -i then typed
    chmod 755 oscam
    seems to work but then i typed " ./oscam "and get "cannot execute binary"
    Then tried chmod +x oscam
    and still won't execute.


    Any ideas?
    Thanks again for your help.
    Allan.

  • Compile oscam yourself.


    cd /usr/src


    svn co h**p://www.oscam.to/svn/oscam/trunk oscam (change ** to tt)


    cd oscam


    mkdir build


    cd build


    cmake -DWEBIF=1 .. (2 dots required)


    make



    Now move oscam and your 3 files .user .conf and .server to whatever folders you use and move oscam to whatever folder you use..


    ie



    mkdir /bin/oscam


    cp oscam /bin/oscam


    cd /bin/oscam


    chmod 755 oscam


    and to start it


    ./oscam -b



    To get oscam running on startup


    nano /etc/rc.local



    now just before exit add


    /bin/oscam/./oscam -b


    save and exit, now oscam will auto start on boot.

  • Hi there, thanks for all the help guys, i was using the 64 bit version on a 32 bit pc,doh!!
    Sorry for wasting your time , everything is working fine now.
    All the best,
    Allan.
