When I download VP.net and run the start file (vpnet-linux-3.7.3-00324.run) it returns an encoding error "The file you opened has some invalid characters. If you continue editing this file you could corrupt this document." Is this a .NET framework failure due to incompatible package sources? What's going on here?
This is not a .NET thing; it is that you opened the .run file in text editor, instead of running it.
Right click on the .run file and select "Properties." Move to the "Permissions" tab and check the box for "Allow executing (Or running) as a program"
Then double click the .run file and it should give a popup asking if you want to display or Run - Choose Run
Alternatively, if you open a terminal in that directory and give the command
./vpnet-linux-3.7.3-00324.run
That will run it, once you give it executable permissions.
