Bash throwing error when I try to run file

Posted on November 4, 2017

I was trying to run a file in my home directory called millibyted, but whenever I run ./millibyted, it says -bash: ./millibyted: No such file or directory

Now, I am absolutely certain that the file is there; I have sftp’d in and everything, but it just keeps throwing that error. This doesn’t happen on my personal PC, also on Ubuntu 16.04. What do I do?
