Issue/Introduction
You are trying to start the installation of introscope10.8.0.27 on a Red-Hat 8 server and when executing the bin file, you get error:
./introscope10.8.0.27linuxAMD64.bin -i console -bash: ./introscope10.8.0.27linuxAMD64.bin: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
It seems the file is corrupted or there is carriage return in the install script?
Environment
Release : 10.8
Resolution
The ^M should not appear there. A few things can cause this:
The installer uses !/bin/sh. Check the permissions on the file and also the user that you are using to install it.
The file was transferred to the Linux server not using binary mode for transport. This would explain the ^M carriage return showing up
If possible, download the file from the Linux server directly. If you can only download the file from a Windows server, do that and then use scp to do a secure transfer as scp uses binary mode to transfer files to a Linux server.
