      This is the error reported by ooklaserver.sh when executed

      –--------------------
      Extracting Server Files
      x OoklaServer
      x OoklaServer.properties.default
      Starting OoklaServerELF interpreter /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 not found, error 8
      Abort trap
      . . . . . . . . . .
      Failed to Start Daemon

      The problem seems to be ld-elf.so.1... why?

        You can't be bothered to share any information about your configuration but you expect us to debug some 3rd-party application and why it doesn't run?

            Does it exist on your router ?

            [2.4.2-RELEASE][admin@pfsense]/root: find / -name ld-elf.so.1 -print
            /libexec/ld-elf.so.1
            /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1
            [2.4.2-RELEASE][admin@pfsense]/root:

            Is the file your trying to run 64bit ?

            Typing in file filename should tell you.

              Yes… there is
              /libexec/ld-elf.so.1
              /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1

              Output of command file is:

              [2.4.2-RELEASE] /root: file ooklaserver.sh
              ooklaserver.sh: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable

              ooklaserver.sh call Ooklaserver executable that is file OoklaServer
              OoklaServer: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, interpreter /libexec/ld-elf.so.1, for FreeBSD 8.3, stripped

              It seems the problem is ELF 32-bit LSB executable… but the platform is 64bit... there is a solution to run 32 bit executable?

                Think you need to talk with Ookla

                  It's very likely that pfSense disables the 32-bit emulation layer and runs only native 64-bit binaries from version 2.4 onwards.

                  The 32-bit emulation layer is a kernel option that needs to be on at compilation time, there is no workaround if the kernel option is not turned on.
