Redhat 8 Server Won't Start

nbb

When i try an launch a NS server on a redhat 8 box, with kernal 2.4.18-14 when i try and launch a NS server as root, I get the following error.

LoadLibrary failed on /home/server/hlds_l/ns/dlls/ns_i386.so: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Host_Error: Couldn't get DLL API from /home/server/hlds_l/ns/dlls/ns_i386.so!

FATAL ERROR (shutting down): Host_Error: Couldn't get DLL API from /home/server/hlds_l/ns/dlls/ns_i386.so!


The ns_i386.so file is there (1.04 updated version - i get the same error with the version 1.00 version)

A counter-strike server lauches fine from the same hlds.exe

Any help or surgestions appreciated.

Pay close attention to this, here is your error.

libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

In your libs directory, create a soft symlink to the one you do have.

Don't do that. Please. No special privileges are required. Just make a new user -- hlds, ns, something like that -- and install everything into that user's home directory. Log in as that user, and fire it up.
