How did you install it? Using the Debian packages? 
ppa:sven-eckelmann/ppa-mupen64plus

How did you start it (complete command and parameters). Do you have the correct 
rights to access ./libmupen64plus.so.2? Does the link (libmupen64plus.so.2 is 
usually only a symbolic link) point to a valid file to which you have full 
access? Do you have any kind of security framework installed which could 
prevent the loading using dlopen from specific directories? Are the files in a 
path on a partition without noexec flag?

I installed using the binaries and running the install.sh script. I started
it by typing mupen64plus.  I think I have the correct rights and the link
points to a valid file? I do not have any kind of security framework
installed. I think so?

I'm kind of a noob, and I probably made an error during the install process,
although I'm not sure how. I posted because I was not the only one who had
this issue.

Please either use the ppa or call the installation script like that:

sudo ./install.sh /usr/

But you must resolve the missing dependencies (like libpng14.so) manually when 
you use the precompiled version from this site - compile it and install 
libpng14 from 
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/libpng/libpng-1.4.4.tar.xz?download .

The ppa should be easier for you. Just follow the instructions under
