Installing flashplayer 11 on Linux 64 bit - error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6

[MurrayFurtado]

I've downloaded the flashplayer_11_sa_debug.i386.tar.gz file and extracted it on my RHEL box. When I run ./flashplayerdebugger I get the following error:

./flashplayerdebugger: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

This lib is found in /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 on this machine.

It is my understanding that flashplayer has native 64 bit support on Linux and therefore should be compatible with lib64 libaries, so why I am I seeing this error? I've been told it's because it's a 32 bit version of the player....

I also see this error if I install the flashplayer_11_sa.i386.tar.gz projector instead of the debugger version.

There don't seem to be any specific 64bit versions of the flashplayer from the download page: http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, yet there seem to be beta releases of a 64 bit Linux player which are no longer available.

Can anyone help me with this? Where can I get a 64bit v11 flashplayer for Linux?

Thanks

64-bit players are only available for the broswer.  64-bit Stand Alone Players are not available...

Hi MurrayFurtado,

The builds you are attempting to download from that page are the 32-bit content debuggers and standalone players.  To download the 64-bit players go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer (or get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions).

Since you didn't specify which version of RHEL you have, FP 11 is supported on RHEL 5.6 or later (http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html).

So to clarify there are NO 64 bit standalone players available for Linux, right?

I am trying to configure a headless Linux box to run Flex Unit tests through my Continuous Integration server. So I take it I'll have to install the 32 bit standalone projector and associated 32 bit library dependencies. Is this correct?  Or do I need to install the NSPluginWrapper?
