Libraries version needed

Post by Vini »

Hello everyone,
Im using the latest version of RMAs and HM and i'd like to know if there is any way to manage to make a RMA runs on an old Linux plateform. Indeed, I had several problems with a RedHat xserver wich is really out of date (gcc version = 2.94 for example :() and we cannot update it, its not our business, our customer want to keep it that way... So i'd like to know if your Unix RMA 1.22 works with such a old OS or if it's possible to link only some libraries (i guess not) or anything else...
Could you please give a small list of libraries version needed for a standard linux.
Thanks
Regards
Vincent

Could you provide more information, please?
- What exact problems have you faced?
- Do you see any errors? What exact errors do you see?

In fact, RMA 1.22 should work on such an old system. Truth to say, RMA 1.25 should work either. I suppose, there are some compatibility problems might appear, related to libstdc++.so library, however, I think you may resolve this by creating links, e.g: ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 /usr/lib/libstdc++so.6 or something like that. ;-)

You are right, gcc version 2.94 is pretty old, but I am sure it is possible to compile the RMA using it. However, we supply RMA source codes for the registered customers only. Could you send request to support@ks-soft.net and provide your Registration Name and/or Order ID?

Yeah, that's my problem, the library libstdd++.so.6 is missing on my system and the one i got is libstdc++.so.2.8 which is really old, but i din't try to link that one to a .6 one, i'll try right away and i'll let you know.
I tried to install the package which contain libstd++.so.6 but it's a real mess, the sytem is too old, i would need a complete update to manage for it.
Thanks for such a quick reply
See u

Well, it worked, my deamon has started pretty properly (i still had a segmentation error) but it looks like it's working my agent is runig ans it's listening the 1055 port so... i'll see in further test when our customers will open us that port ^^

Glad you have managed to get it working. However, segmentation fault is quite dangerous thing, so I would recommend you to recompile the agent. Please, send request to support@ks-soft.net
