ld.so.1 missing , Red hat Linux .4.0 ! help
 

I HAVE installed Red hat linux 4.0 2.6.9-22.Elsmp kernel , i have installed all the packages ( choose every thing during installation ) but
when i start a programming i get bad ELF interpretor /usr/lib/ld.so.1 missing . what is this ? even though i have installed "everything in the cd RHWS 4.0" why is this error ? please suggest me some solution URGETN.

The usual installation of Linux (RedHat or others) doesn't include installing some development packages that are needed for programming.

I don't know what tools RedHat provides other than rpm that allow you to see what rpms you have installed, and what is not installed. Check your libs for devel packages relating to programming. Also, try running 'rpm -q --whatprovides lib.so.1' to see if that reveals anything.

Thank You ! but # rpm -q --whatprovides ld.so.1 gives answer . nothing provides ld.so.1 funny !
what next ? URGENT

I faced many problems with .so files. Some thing like this worked out for me. You can copy that file from another machine and paste it in the required location, it works out. Check out and let me know.

What are you trying to run btw? Are you sure it's a linux executable, because ld.so.1 is the solaris runtime linker.
