symbol not found for nagios library executable

[Juan M Leon]

Hello, I have a HPUX 11.31 server and I recently installed nagios from the iexpress package. however after configuring the required parameters. I get a symbol not found error

/usr/ccs/bin/ldd  -r    /opt/iexpress/nagios/libexec/check_users

/opt/iexpress/nagios/libexec/check_users:
        libintl.so.8 => /usr/lib/hpux32/libintl.so.8
        libpthread.so.1 =>      /usr/lib/hpux32/libpthread.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/hpux32/libdl.so.1
        libunwind.so.1 =>       /usr/lib/hpux32/libunwind.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/hpux32/libc.so.1
        libuca.so.1 =>  /usr/lib/hpux32/libuca.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/hpux32/libdl.so.1
        symbol not found: libintl_textdomain    (/opt/iexpress/nagios/libexec/check_users)
        symbol not found: libintl_bindtextdomain        (/opt/iexpress/nagios/libexec/check_users)
        symbol not found: libintl_gettext       (/opt/iexpress/nagios/libexec/check_users)

However if I export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/hpux32/ then i dont get the error.

I have another server that was build before my time. check the settings to find where was the LD_LIBRARY or SHLIB path configured but found nothing.

Can anyone help me solve this without the need to export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/hpux32

Thank you

These look like libintl unsats.

Have you used chatr(1) and ldd(1) search?  Looked at /etc/SHLIB_PATH?

Perhaps libintl.so is in /usr/lib/hpux32/?

Create a symlink from /usr/local/lib/hpux32/libintl.so (whatever) to /usr/lib/hpux32/?

Dennis,

thank you for your reply, yes I checked ldd to find location for the needed libraries. I found that there were missing files under /usr/lib/hpux32 so I copied files and created corrsponding links.

one thing I noticed between between a working nagios client server and this new server is that he working server uses libiconv where as the one I just installed nagios agent does not seem to have the reference for libiconv (both servers are using the same nagios version and depot package software install)

here is output of chatr and ldd

This indicates the difference is in libintl.so.8.

Dennis,

Thank you I think initially I copied files from source to other libraries where the ,so file was missing instead of creating links. I removed the files and created links and all my nagios checks are working.

The following are the new links

#> ln -s /usr/local/lib/hpux32/libintl.so    /usr/local/lib/hpux32/libintl.so.8
#> ln -s /usr/local/lib/hpux32/libintl.so    /usr/lib/hpux32/libintl.so.8
#> ln -s /usr/local/lib/hpux32/libintl.so    /usr/lib/hpux32/libintl.so

thansk again
