Yocto generally does not support this use case. The binary was compiled in a different environment and expects things in different places, and probably being different versions too. I could point out the specific problem why the executable doesn't even start, but it's really the wrong way to approach it. Is the source code for it available?

Microsoft specifically lists which distributions are supported, and there is nothing Yocto-based in it:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/dependencies?tabs=netcore31&pivots=os-linux

For mono things you can use meta-mono layer, but I am not sure if it provides exactly the item you're after.

Hello,

 

I’m trying to create a normal QEmu (x86-64) Image, which I can let run in Virtualbox. As a addition I deployed .NET Core, which I got from this side:

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/thank-you/runtime-aspnetcore-3.1.1-linux-x64-binaries

 

But I can’t execute it:

----------------------------

root@qemux86-64:/usr/share/dotnet# ./dotnet

-sh: ./dotnet: No such file or directory

 

 

But it is there:

------------------

root@qemux86-64:/usr/share/dotnet# ls -lh

total 116K

It tried to get more information about the dotnet-executable

I compared those values with that from Python, which does run on this system

================================================================================

 

The only difference I found, is that Python is a “ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable” whereas dotnet is a “ELF 64-bit LSB executable”. I tried to turn that PIE (seemed to be a gcc option: --enable-default-pie) feature of, but that didn’t work well, and I couldn’t find a way to remove it.
