Unable to use fossil through SSH, results in segmentation fault

I'm trying to use Fossil on my shared sever through SSH. I've taken the following steps:

  1. Created the folder fossil (in my user root, which gives the path /fossil/)
  2. Uploaded the linux build of Fossil in /fossil/
  3. Gave both the fossil folder and file CHMOD 755

However, using SSH and cd'ing into /fossil (which is the correct path), and then using any command only results in Segmentation fault.

Any suggestions on how to solve this problem are greatly appreciated.

Solution

  • I was, like Greg said, most likely using the wrong build. Bulding Fossil on my own solved my problem and now it works great.
