Adabas D: Problems with RedHat 5.0

Applies to

Adabas: Version 6.1, 10.0

Symptom:

You are using ADABAS D with RedHat 5.0 which is based on glibc (GNU libc) instead of Linux libc. Almost every Tcl/Tk programs produces error messages.

Cause:

adabastclsh and adabaswish were linked dynamically to libc5 which is not available on this system. All curses based programs as well as the database kernel were linked statically and thus are not affected by this problem.

Solution:

James T. Crookston suggests the following procedure. Thanks to James for the information.

ln -s /lib/libc.so.6 /lib/libc.so.5
ln -s /lib/libm.so.6 /lib/libm.so.5
mv $DBROOT/bin/adabastclsh $DBROOT/bin/adabastclsh.bak
mv $DBROOT/bin/adabaswish  $DBROOT/bin/adabaswish.bak
ln -s /usr/bin/tclsh $DBROOT/bin/adabastclsh
ln -s /usr/bin/wish  $DBROOT/bin/adabaswish
The S.u.S.E. GmbH and the Software AG obviously recommend to use S.u.S.E. Linux for ADABAS D.
