Redhat 9 Prob With Ns_i386.so

chaosoccchaosocc Join Date: 2003-05-14 Member: 16295Members
I just installed Redhat 9 on my server-pc, and tried to run a NS server. I soon figured out that i had to link libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 to one of my files in my library inside of /usr/lib/ but the only lib that looked like libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 was libstdc++.so.5.0.3

So i linked libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 to libstdc++.so.5.0.3
Now i'm getting other kinds of faults when i try to start my server. So the lib given with Redhat 9 doesn't work <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

With Redhat 8 there doesn't occur any problem but i really want to remain working with Redhat 9

So does anyone know this problem and can he fix it ?

thx.
David

    easy solution, don't waste your time with RedHat linux. Its nothing but jacked up crazy. Since you have no problem switching distros, go with Slack9 or Debian.

    Slack is completely packageless, but alot of sysadmins like debain better for some crazy reason.

    I personally say Slack because its a waste of your time to even try to fix a RH system IMO.

    Sometimes Covienience isn't worth its while.

    For example, a convient store may have Krispy Creme donuts, but are stale because they were brought in at 5am, it is now 8am on the way to work. Buying these won't do for the clients because stale = the suck. Driving an extra 15minutes to get the FRESH donuts really makes you look better, even though nobody will say anything, the meeting will go much smoother because the clients are more satisfied.

    Meaning, although package distros work sometimes you'll run into situations were some programs just don't work well together with the package libs and such. and this can cause additional bumps in the road. I agree that packages are nice, but the trouble they cause is a pain in the butt later on down the road with a tools that don't compile well witht he other tools.

    For example, upgrading to 3.1.1.1a on my RH box caused segfaults when i tried to load a map. RH = da SUCK! and another guy can't even get NS to run with RH9. I feel sorry for all RH users.

    Another example is i did up2date --update and it updated my httpd...then it wouldn't start up!!!! hahah, i'm using nothing custom on this box...just thier own RPMs. And it won't freak'n start up there own package, how lame is that?! i tried it 3 times w/o much luck, finally found an older package and got it installed so my webservice is back up, but geez, not worth the headache IMO. My last remaining RH box is my webserver ATM, eventually i'll get around to converting it to slack9 but thats another project, another day

    Maybe because to run a HL server you need at minimum the base install plus use apt-get to install gdb. Thats it, about 80MB, then install the HL server, mods, and patches. BTW Adminmod works like a charm, no problems.

    Debian is good for stability, not so much freshness. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I've never had this happen. But if it did why abandon the packaging system? If the packaged version is borked you can upgrade the package or patch and compile the package yourself - and then reuse it.(apt-get build-dep packagename; apt-get source packagename; ./debian/rules binary; (for alot of packages - might be something else.)dpkg -i mynewpackage.deb; Another neat trick is repackaging a package with your configs.(dpkg-repack pakagename)

    The only major quirk I can think of with debian is that IA32 is just that - most stuff isn't optimised for athlon/pentium/whatever (The stuff where optimisation matters is though (kernel, crypto etc.)).

    rpm is messy. Debian is <i>much</i> better tested when it comes to upgrades/updates - partly because they're not trying to sell you a new version. Debian is an install once system.

    Linkage!

    Here's a slightly off-topic tidbit for you DIY-style guys that run Slackware (many of you may already do what I'm about to suggest). When a packaged FOO is not available, or the available FOO doesn't have all the features you want, take a little extra time to make a package out of your source installation. Makes the tasks of removing and reinstalling a breeze, unless you really like remembering where all the pieces of FOO install to...
