/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol

[Nigel Green]

Hi,

When trying to run an executable, we get the following error message:

/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: _mFsoloadunload (code) from /usr/local/lib/libmb.sl
Abort(coredump)

running ldd on the executable shows:

SHLIB_PATH is set as:

SHLIB_PATH=/opt/cobol/cobdir/coblib:/oracle/app/product/8.0.6/lib:/opt/cobol/cob
dir/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib

so I don't think there is a problem with the paths.

does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be cauing the error?

Many thanks

what is file saying? Is it PA-RISC or IA64 based one (ELF). If elf then set LDLIB_PATH setting.

hth.

Looks like either some libraries are missing on the link stage or some runtime optins are not set correctly.

Try using tusc and let us know the results,
tusc can be downloaded from
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Sysadmin/tusc-7.7/

Also, try to get "bt" from GDB.

hi guys,

file shows:

file /usr/local/bin/udelewwd
/usr/local/bin/udelewwd: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked
-not stripped

also the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is already set as :

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/cobol/cobdir/coblib:/opt/cobol/cobdir/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/loc
al/lib

when you say that libraries are missing at the link stage and runtime options are incorrect, are these things that would be set when compiling the code?

many thanks

Problem is with application linker setting.

40 /usr/local/bin>chatr udelewwd
udelewwd:

SHLIB_PATH disabled second

Some patch has to like,

LD_LIBRARY_PATH enabled first
SHLIB_PATH enabled second
embedded path enabled third /usr/lib:

everthing is disabled there. Is it your own one. Try to rebuild it. Before that,

Can you try as,

# /binary

what it is saying?

hth.

[Arunvijai_4]

Are you missing any dependencies ? Just a thought ..

[Stephen Keane]

What does

# ldd /usr/local/lib/libmb.sl


give you ?

[Nigel Green]

Yes, the code is ours, but I didn't compile it, i know nothing about this side of things as you may have guessed. I think i'll pass your findings onto the guys who are responsible for this and ask them to rebuild it. I've tried enableing the use of the embedded path and the SHLIB_PATH using chatr +s and +b, but I get the following error when trying to enable the embedded path:

chatr(error): +b enable, embedded path not defined at link time

so it seems like it does need to be recompiled.

ldd /usr/local/lib/libmb.sl returns nothing...is this something i should be looking into?

[Muthukumar_5 · Accepted solution]

You have to recompile your application with library settings. You can include libraries with PATH as -L/usr/lib/ or directly with that library name.

a) ldd /usr/local/lib/libmb.sl returns nothing...is this something i should be looking into?

yes.

hth.
