Installation with .bin file

Hi,

I would like to install PostgreSQL 8.3.8-1 using postgresql-8.3.8-1-linux-x64.bin file. But i'm having problem when i try to execute the binary file:

./postgresql-8.3.8-1-linux-x64.bin
-bash: ./postgresql-8.3.8-1-linux-x64.bin: cannot execute binary file

Also i gave chmod +x permissions to the file.

We are using the OS:
uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.9-78.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jul 9 15:39:47 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Can anyone help me to get continued.I searched for the solution but not found docs on this.

It's because you are using a 32 bit OS

We are using the OS:
uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.9-78.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jul 9 15:39:47 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

But trying to run a 64 bit installer

postgresql-8.3.8-1-linux-x64.bin

(Notice the 'linux-x64').

Download the 32 bit version of the installer and you should be fine.

Oh...Sorry and Thanks Scottie.
