problem on run a makefile
 

Dear Friends,

When I run my makefile (see following) I encountered with the following message:

gcc Online_ana.o fppdaq.o SentEvent2Root.o bina_unpack.o tcpip.o -o BINA ../cdaq/Debug.a ../elec_lib/Elec.a -lpthread -lg2c -lcrypt -ldl -lm -lnsl
../cdaq/Debug.a: could not read symbols: File in wrong format
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [BINA] Error 1

I have a system with Krenel Linux 2.6.35.14-96.fc14.x86_64 and Root version of 5.28.
here is my Makefile:

CC = gcc
CFLAGS = -c -Wall
LD = gcc

# sources
CSRCS = Online_ana.c fppdaq.c SentEvent2Root.c bina_unpack.c tcpip.c

OBJS = $(CSRCS:.c=.o)

INCLDS = -I. -I../cdaq -I../elec_lib -I../common

DEFS = -DLinux86 -DAnalysis -DOSF1

LIBS = -lpthread -lg2c -lcrypt -ldl -lm -lnsl
CDAQLIB = ../cdaq/Debug.a ../elec_lib/Elec.a

BINA: $(OBJS)
$(LD) $(OBJS) -o $@ $(CDAQLIB) $(LIBS)

.c.o:
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(DEFS) $(INCLDS) $<

clean:
rm -f *.o *~ core ./BINA



It will be appreciable your help.

What is the output of

[Mohammad@Eslami cdaq]$ readelf -h Debug.a

As you can see from the output some are ELF32, some are ELF64, you CANNOT mix them. Recompile them all to ELF64.

see that fc 14
it is Fedora 14
you will have problems

Fedora 14 is 6 versions and 3 YEARS!!!! out of date
Fedora 14 went END OF LIFE back in December 8 2011

there have been NO security or any software updates sense the end of 2011


please install the current fedora 20

then very soon fedora 21

I use Linux 2.6 and do not recommend unnecessary updating if you are a program developer.
I am going through that and the bugs and inconsistencies are outnumbering the new features.
Both my editor and debugger are hampering me right now.

Upon seeing the .a extension, I first thought they were libraries and you just forgot the -l so gcc thinks they are objects. But seeing those headers, I do not see any hints that they are libraries (which I do not remember right now, so look at a known static library (.a) if you are unsure too).

I am considering that you compiled libraries of one object each. I did that once, but cannot remember what the headers looked like.

But how did you get both ELF32 and ELF64 binaries ? Strange, if you are compiling them yourself. If you are getting them from another source then there are always possible issues of binary compatibility with this gcc. I am unsure about how far the standard ELF formats support linking with foreign binaries.

I am on the wrong machine to check these things for you right now, but double check yourself.

if you NEED the 2.6 kernel
then install CentOS 6.5
it still has 4 YEARS of support left in it

using a dead and very unsupported OS with KNOWN AND NOW FIXED ( in 20 ) SECURITY HOLES is never a good idea .
