My new VPS is running Debian 5.0 (bash 3.2.29), and some commands seems to be missing. For example the ps command is not here, neither is ls (but dir works). Is there a package missing or what's the deal?:# type psps is hashed (/bin/ps):# ps-bash: /bin/ps: No such file or directory:# echo $PATH/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:# /bin/ps-bash: /bin/ps: No such file or directoryEdit: More info req from comments:. It's 64bit.

Don't know any details on the actual installation. It's a virtual machine running virtuozzo & plesk. readelf shows that /bin/ps and /bin/ls are 32bit.
This is a common problem if you do a mysql import and overwrite the mysql database itself, such as when you might be restoring from a mysqldump -A backup. This is a good thing: you probably want to back up all your mysql users, permissions, etc - but it can wreak havoc with things like the debian-sys-maint user used to cleanly shutdown mysql.
And theres no 32bit /lib/ld-linux-so.2. How did that happen?
