/lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

Question

When I exectued command to install application following error accured: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

I was not aware of how to fix this problem, to find out resolution I searched for solotutions on net and found following resolution:

yum install glibc.i686 or yum install glibc.i386

But bad luck this was not worked at all. It was throwing the following error:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Setting up Install Process
No package glibc.i686 available.
Error: Nothing to do

Again I tried to resolve this and got some solutions from net;

Download glibc rpm packge for centos 6 and install them.

I dowloaded following packeges:

glibc-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm
glibc-common-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm
glibc-devel-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm
glibc-headers-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm
glibc-static-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm
glibc-utils-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm

And tried to install with following command:

yum install glibc.i686
rpm -U glibc-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm
rpm -ivh glibc-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm

None of them is worked. Got following message:

[root@demo tmp_glibc]# rpm -ivh glibc-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm
    error: Failed dependencies:
    glibc-common = 2.12-1.80.el6 is needed by glibc-2.12-1.80.el6.i686

    libfreebl3.so(NSSRAWHASH_3.12.3) is needed by glibc-2.12-1.80.el6.i686

To resolve dependency problem tried to install "glibc-common-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm", but again bad luck runs and gives error:

[root@demo tmp_glibc]# rpm -ivh glibc-common-2.12-1.80.el6.i686.rpm

    libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.1) is needed by glibc-common-2.12-1.80.el6.i686

Can anyone please help me figure out how to resolve this?
