Only 32 bit binary files are included in standard edition. To run Standard Edition on a 64bit Linux build, you will need to install 32bit compatible libraries (ia32-libs for Ubuntu/Debian and glibc for CentOS).

On Debian System:

dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get update

which fixes the problem.

Please pay attention to the note for each file on download page. For example, to run LSWS version 5.0 on FreeBSD version higher than 8.x (x86) needs to install /usr/ports/misc/compat8x.
