Floating point exception compiling on Mandriva, run on Debian

digdas · 04-23-2007, 01:23 PM

I have compiled below program on a mandriva Sprint 2007 system (the latest)
The program has a floating point exception, when running on a debian webserver.
Older programs do work, compiled on Mandriva 2007 (the system before this one)

C-program:

1 #include <stdio.h>
2 #include <stdlib.h>
3 #include <unistd.h>
4
5 int main( )
6 {
7 printf("Jaja\n\n");
8 }

cc -o test test.c

./test
Error message:
Floating point exception./test

Who knows what the problem is?

well theres definitely nothing wrong with the code.. does it give the same error with 'gcc' (rather than 'cc')? does it give the same error with stdlib and unistd includes commented out?

I did the file command:

This executable does NOT work:
ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
This one does:
ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped

Only difference: linked for a different Linux

cc and gcc are the same (there is a symbolic link from cc to gcc)
Commenting out above lines does not change the behaviour.
