Hi,

Try to install the 32 bits version of libncursesw in the machine: “$ sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5”

Thank U very much, I have resolved my problem after i executed the command below:

sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5 lib32ncursesw5

Thank U!

I’m glad to hear that. We will fix this issue for next releases so it is not necessary to install any dependency before installing the Liferay Stack.
