RE:[SLE] Applixware; which RPM for shlibs5 (libc5) package
I don't think it is a library issue. If it was so it would tell you that: cp: error in loading shared libraries: /lib/libdl.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory /opt/applix/applix: can't load library '/lib/libdl.so.1' I think you need to check if you got all packages installed right. Besides that on 7.0 I symbolically linked it this way: ln -s /usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib/libdl.so.1 /lib/libdl.so.1 You may want to read this thread: http://lists.suse.com/archives/suse-linux-e/2001-Feb/1803.html the rpm is called shlibs5.rpm mk

whats the error message?
make sure you got shlibs5 (libc5) package installed. you must have it linked alright too.
When I issue the following command: "applixware" in an x-term it spits out this: "/usr/X11R6/bin/applixware: /opt/applix/applix: No such file or directory"
Clicking on one of the executables does'nt help either.
Where do I find shlibs5 etc; I've searched in Yast and looked manualy, but have so far found non on my Suse 7.0 CD's! If I (in Yast) search it gives me "s susepake SuSE Help-System" (the english one) as the result! So which RPM is it?
Should I, perhaps, look in the "office 99" CD's?
Regards and thanks so far, I've had much help just reading this list!

Hi! Thanks! I removed the rpms I had installed; installed the shlibs5 rpm, reinstalled applix, and issued the command "ln -s /usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib/libdl.so.1 /lib/libdl.so.1", and presto it all worked! :-) Thansk again! Regards LarsF PS I then updated the installation with the patches that Suse posted back in 1999 somethimes I think; luckily I had kept those; so now applix 4.4.1 is up and running!

Yes in fact, a missing shlibs5 package can cause the error "No such file or directory". I had this problem with another libc5 program installed on Suse 7.0 that worked fine in Suse 6.2 I even verified that all the libs that the program wanted were in the Suse 7.0 system! But it still didn't work because I installed the libc5 from a Suse 6.2 rpm. The difference? There are 2 different ldd programs for the two lib versions. The shlibs5 package for 7.0 contains wrapper scripts for ldd that dispatch calls to the linker to the correct ldd version depending on what lib is needed. _____________________ Christopher R.
