For instance, when I tried to run eclipse standard through the launcher, nothing happened. I tried to double click the executable, and nothing happened. When I attempted to run it the terminal, I got: ~ β―β―β― '/home/ecc/Apps/eclipseStandard/eclipse' zsh: exec format error: /home/joaolopes/Apps/eclipseStandard/eclipse This behavior is occuring to other apps, like Sublime Text 2 and other versions of eclipse. Do you have any ideia what's going on? Edit to add: I'm using zsh and the file has the necessary perms. eclipse executable share|improve this question edited Apr 17 '14 at 13:25 Braiam 39k1693154 asked Apr 14 '14 at 16:14 ecc 1701210 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 5 down vote accepted Run uname -m and check if the programs you're trying to execute have the appropriate architecture. ie., 32 vs 64 bit. share|improve this answer answered Apr 14 '14 at 16:33 Joao Goncalves 16614 1 Seems like you're correct. I didn't notice I was running x86. Eclipse Standard x86 runs fine. Thanks. –ecc Apr 14 '14 at 16:35 add a comment| Did you find this question interesting?

Perhaps we'll see it at a later date, but don't hold your breath. From this blog post (see also more discussion in the comments) Third, note that Bash and Linux tools cannot interact with Windows applications and tools, and vice-versa.

Artoria2e5 commented May 8, 2016 • edited or run Ruby in Bash from PowerShell Just an irrelevant note: bash.exe passes argv to bash, so bash -c does work. exec: Exec format error This reminds me of the binfmt mechanism in Linux kernel where you can define how files with all sorts of magic can be run... MS can probably use something like a broker over (uh) winsocks to bridge lxss with win32 (see cbwin). Personally I have seen Linux users setting binfmt to wine stuff on Linux automatically. LFBernardo commented May 8, 2016 You can for now until they build the functionality maybe use winexe. It is very powerful (like PSEXEC) xilun commented May 8, 2016 You can also try cbwin - work in progress, but already usable. π 10 π 6 benhillis added feature backlog labels May 8, 2016 rodrymbo commented May 10, 2016 If you can run bash -c from powershell or cmd, you are getting the "magic" bash in c:\windows\system32, the one that gets the magic emulation thing going. This is not bash from the ubuntu distro. When it works, the magic bash -c does pass a script along through the magic emulation thingy to ubuntu's bash, but it doesn't perform any
