how can i fix this invalid ELF header errror?

I installed zeromq on ubuntu 10.04 and the compilation went through without any errors.

However when i try to run the python test, it results in this error:

jerome@VM1:~/zeromq/pyzmq-2.0.7$ python setup.py test
running test
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 144, in <module>

    from zmq import _zmq
ImportError: /home/jerome/zeromq/pyzmq-2.0.7/zmq/_zmq.so: invalid ELF header

What do i need to do to fix this?

Try setting up pyzmq like this:

python setup.py configure --zmq=<your_zmqlibrary_installation_path>
python setup.py build_ext --rpath=<your_zmqlibrary_installation_path>/lib --inplace
python setup.py install
python setup.py test

According to how can i fix this invalid ELF header errror? you need to compile zeromq on your target instead of using a MAC OS X version ...
