Description:
it seems that i am unable to get a build agent running on a client box.

i have a box (std desktop server with AMD Athlon X2 processor, currently running Ubuntu 8.04(hardy). I downloaded the buildagent from the list on my quickbuild server. unzipped it, attempted to start the server, and it failed with an error.

downloaded to home dir
cd /opt
sudo tar -xvvzf ~/buildagent.tar.gz
cd /opt/buildagent/bin
sudo ./agent.sh start
-> got error see below.
i then went into /opt/buildagent/conf and edited all log levels down to DEBUG, and tried again. i saw no differences in output.

===============
Actual Result:
===============
1. /opt/buildagent/logs/console.log is empty.
2. Command line output from calling start:
"Starting QuickBuild Build Agent.../opt/buildagent/bin/./wrapper-linux-x86-64: 2: Syntax error: ")" unexpected"
------------NEXT-------------
I then tried running with console option instead of start. it still failed with the same error, yet slightly different format
root@warx1:/opt/buildagent/bin# ./agent.sh console
Running QuickBuild Build Agent...
/opt/buildagent/bin/./wrapper-linux-x86-64: 2: Syntax error: ")" unexpected


----------------------
Other Env info:
----------------------
root@warx1:~# java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode)

----------
Note:
----------
I'm currently doing a POC of QuickBuild for my company, and this is a blocking issue for us. If the POC is a success then we will likely purchase a site license for our company. Let me know if there is anything more that you need from me.
