groovyserver: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

[Corneil du Plessis]

I recently wanted to give groovyserv a try and use gvm install groovyserv

When I executed ~/.gvm/groovyserv/current/bin/groovyserver 

I received an error: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

I then tried to download https://bitbucket.org/kobo/groovyserv-mirror/downloads/groovyserv-1.0.0-bin.zip

I extracted the zip file and executed bin/setup.sh which printed:

Setup completed successfully for linux_amd64

While my system is linux-i386

I checked setup.sh and it contains the following:

case `uname -m` in

    "x86_64" | "i686")

        arch=amd64

        ;;

    *)

        arch=386

        ;;

i686 is the value of uname -m for 32 bit ubuntu not 64bit.

x86_64 is the value for 64bit
