Apache based web server for HP-UX & swinstall dependencies checks

[dobso]

Hi all,

I just need to know if the swinstall checks also all dependencies while installing. The checks were without any error but i can not start this service (failing probably on missing library or bad version)

/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: getaddrinfo (code) from /opt/hpws/apache/lib/libapr-0.sl.9
Abort(coredump)

Any idea?

Hi Dobso,

Swinstall can be configured to ignore required dependencies.

The option via command line is -x enforce_dependencies=false. From the gui you'd need to check via Options -> Change Options tab.

Regards,

This implies you have an old version of libc. What version do you have? What is your OS version?

Probably checking the libc version was just not done.

Well, the OS version & lib version

# uname -a
HP-UX btvux02 B.11.11 U 9000/785 2003336580 unlimited-user license


# swlist | grep libc
PHCO_24402 1.0 libc cumulative header file patch


I can not find any higher version of this patch :/

This isn't libc, this is for headers. So you have never patched libc on your system. That's good since it explains your getaddrinfo unsat.

I see PHCO_31923.
The latest libc patch is PHCO_35743.

If you have not paid attention to your HP-UX patches you might consider loading the latest QPK patch bundle. It does not contain the newest patches for a release, just those currently recommended by HP for generic use.

You might also use the Software Assistant tool to review all of the patches and security bulletins that might affect your system.

You can find the QPK bundles within the ITRC (http://www.itrc.hp.com) or get them via the SWA tool itself (https://www.hp.com/go/swa)
