Did you install the correct version of hexedit; e.g. are you trying to run an Itanium (HPUX 11.2X, e.g) on a PA-RISC machine? Or vice versa? Have you installed ncurses?

My machine is PA_RISC with HP-UX 11.11
installed hexedit for 11i for Itanium .
Have problem Â

You'll need to get the PA-RISC version of hexedit. Itanium uses a different executable file format. The file command will tell you this as in:

file /usr/local/bin/hexedit

My system is HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC .
In web site http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Development/Tools/hexedit-0.9.7/ not have version for my system .
The version HP 11i is for Itanium .
Help-me !

The Liverpool Software Porting Centre has only created executables for 11.00 and 11.22 and 11.23 for Itanium. The 11.00 PA-RISC version should work on 11.11 for PA-RISC. If not, you'll have to bild your own version (you'll need an ANSI C compiler and development libraries).
