In this post, we’ll discuss the error “standard_init_linux.go:228: exec user process caused: exec format error” and offer two fixes.

Programming and development of software, in general, has made significant progress from the early Assembly days. Nowadays, software development is more efficient and straightforward than ever due to the variety of techniques and frameworks available worldwide.

These explanations might be the cause of this:

• It is unnecessary to add #!/bin/bash at the top of the shell files.
• It is possible to add a space between the shebang (#!/bin/bash).
