Re: Shared Lib Error on RHEL AS 4u2 with Oracle's compat-libcwait

Hi Steve

Tried what you suggested but did not work. here are the outputs (minus the ld errors :) )

$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf

$ ls -l /etc/ld.so.conf.d
-rw-r--r--   1 root root    22 Nov 24  2004 qt-x86_64.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root root    15 Sep 19 13:38 xorg-x11-i386.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root root    17 Sep 19 12:14 xorg-x11-x86_64.conf

% cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/xorg-x11-i386.conf /usr/X11R6/lib

$ ldconfig

Error still showing
Now I am not sure how to add the /lib/libcwait.so reference to /etc/ld.so.conf so i added the 2nd line below

$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
include /lib/libcwait.so

$ ldconfig

Error still showing. Undid what I did above.

Anything else I could try?
