libstdc++.so.5 problems

brokenpromises · 10-13-2007, 10:21 PM

Hello,

OS is CentOS 5.

I installed Lotus Domino, and upon starting it as instructed, I got this error:

Code:

[notes@testsrv notesdata]$ /opt/ibm/lotus/bin/server
/opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux/tunekrnl: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux/server: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I thought this was a problem with the library not being found, so I located libstdc++.so.5 and created a symlink:

Code:

root@testsrv /usr/lib $ ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so.5

But that did not fix the problem:

Code:

[notes@testsrv notesdata]$ /opt/ibm/lotus/bin/server
/opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux/tunekrnl: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: Error 40
/opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux/server: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: Error 40

A quick google suggests that the command to fix this is

Code:

yum install compat-libstdc++

However this is what I get:

Code:

root@testsrv /usr/lib $ yum install compat-libstdc++

Any ideas on what is wrong here?

Any help appreciated!

The package required is:
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61.i386.rpm
Is this package installed?

How do I check?

All fixed: Just ran this

Code:

yum install compat-libstdc++-33

and now the program runs.

For the record, after a fresh installation of Fedora there will be a list of all installed packages in /root called "install.log". This list is not in alphabetical order, once you update your copy of Fedora there will be a list in alphabetical order in /var/log/ called "rpmpkgs", this list gets updated every time you do updates. Although you said you're running CentOS, your profile suggests you're running FC6, look in these areas of CentOS to see if it also contains these lists.

rpm -qa > rpms-install.txt

sort rpms-install.txt (if you want it to be in alphabetical order.)

man rpm

Hope this helps
