linker error problem

Anand_56 — Thu, 07 Jul 2005 03:21:31 GMT

I am facing a linker error in my application build process for a library.

Problem:
Can't shl_load() a library containing Thread Local Storage: /usr/lib/libpthread.1

I am using gmake, aCC, ld, and Ansi C to compile my libraries on hp-ux 11.11.

hi,

seems like u r trying to run Oracle 10g. not sure if u have follow the instructions given by Oracle.

could u reply on the ld version of /usr/lib/libpthread.sl:

# what /usr/lib/libpthread.sl

also, please note that this is a forum and not HP support site, thus do not expect immediate response, though the "forummer" here does reply faster than most of the other forums.

regards.

regards.

Hi,
Here are the details you asked for.

===========
what /usr/lib/libpthread.sl
============
$ what /usr/lib/libpthread.sl
/usr/lib/libpthread.sl:
Pthread Interfaces
$Revision: libpthread.1: @(#) depot-32pa R11.11_BL2003_1209_2 PATCH_11.11 PHCO_29960 Tue Dec 9 01:51:37 PST 2003

Yes, I am trying to connect to 10g. I am following Oracle's guidelines.

When I compiled a sample executable and a sample library which connects to Oracle 10g it executed correctly.

I used the same cc flags and ld flags to compile my application library. That is failing.

Regards,
Anand.

Hi Anand,

which 'ld and linker' patch do you have installed?

'swlist -l product|grep linker'

At the moment PHSS_30966 is the most recommended patch - the later ones PHSS_30968 and PHSS_30970 are just recalled by HP because of the problem:
'PHSS_30968 introduced behavior that may cause dynamically loaded 32-bit setuid applications to fail because the SHLIB_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables are ignored for setuid programs. The applications may fail to start due to missing libraries or may abort at startup due to libraries being loaded in a different order than intended.'

============
linker patch
============

# swlist -l product|grep linker
PHSS_22535 1.0 ld(1) and linker tools cumulative patch

Previously I had PHSS_30970 and then I went back to PHSS_22535 because I was told PHSS_30970 had some problem.

Thanks.

Hi again,

you should try it with installed PHSS_30966 or at least check the description of PHSS_30966 if it could help or not.

Looks like PHSS_30966 is the latest recommended version.
