Is the linux build of this application working for anyone else? The .appimage will not launch the program for me.

Hi! I tried in debian 9, ubuntu 16.04, ubuntu 19.04 and latest fedora and worked fine for me. Could you try executing it from the console to see if some error arraises?

And also could you tell me what is your hardware and linux distro?

Hey, not OP but I'm having problems too on Pop!_OS (64bit ubuntu based)

bash: ./laigter-1.4.0-beta-x86_64.AppImage: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

That's strange because i have a computer with Pop!_OS and always test it there. What version of Pop!_OS are you using? It's strange because that error you mention usually appears when you try to run an application for a different architecture, like an x86 app on an ARM target...

Using Pop!_OS 18.10 x86_64. I just realized I'm not using 19.04 so i'm gonna upgrade and try again after that...

Actually, it should work in any ubuntu based distro above 16.04... let me see if i find anything... I know you surely already did this, but have you double checked you granted permissions to the appimage?

mieldepoche5 years ago

Yep... in fact it had no exec perms by default.

Hey, i'm sorry but cannot reproduce your problem.. i have a machine with pop os 18.04 on a x86_64 arch machine and works fine. Could you try downloading again? or try with a previous release: https://mega.nz/#!OjBDkAZJ!ob1xbEqsbi5s8k3RP_BYeikSnKYCwCm0wPL0pwfOrf4

Have you tried in other pc? I've tried in Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and Pop Os and could not reproduce your issue.. sorry.

Okay so the 1.3 seem to work perfectly well!

I'll try on ubuntu when I can. I guess something is just broken on my side...

Thanks for the help!

Hi, just to let you know, I had the same issue with 1.5 on Elementary OS 5.0 (Ubuntu 18.04.2 based) when downloaded through the Itch desktop app. Wouldn't launch through the Itch launcher, and trying to run it from a terminal gave me this output:
bash: /home/michael/.config/itch/apps/laigter/laigter-1.5-beta-x86_64.AppImage: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

Version 1.3 from that download link worked fine, so I went to the Itch website, and downloaded 1.5 through Firefox, instead of the Itch desktop app, and this time it worked!
So the issue might not be with your .AppImage, but with something that happens to it when downloaded through the Itch desktop app.
