ERROR: symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time

Hi Guys,

I've found a lot of topics with this issue, but they either didnt provide a solution or didnt have one.

When i try to install Tivoli Management Framewoek on lenny, i get the following:

Code:

error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This is fixed by editing the installer and changing the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL, to the version i have (2.6.26). But then i get another error:

Code:

symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

which im not able solve. I've tried changing LD_ASSUME_KERNEL to other values, but it doesnt work. I dont know what else i can do.

This some more info:

Code:

Did you ever figure this one out?

I'm running into the same problem trying to install an older tool on a newer ubuntu installation.

My libc.so.6 also lists GLIBC_2.0, so I'm wondering whether the last part of the error gives some indication of the problem: "with link time reference".

I can suggest following: first, install application in question on it's native distribution
This distribution can be in VM. on spare box, etc

Then use statifier (http://statifier.sf.net) or Ermine (http://magicErmine.com)
to convert your application into self-contained, portable executable.

After that copy this executable to your target box - it should works.

Statifier is GPL-licensed, but it has problem on systems with memory randomization.
Ermine handle memory randomization well, but it's commercial.
