LDAP-UX Admin Server Daemon Fails to Start - /usr/lib/dld.sl Unresolved symbols

[ES UNIX Team]

As the title suggests, we are having issues when attempting to start the Administration Server Daemon. We are running LDAP-UX version 6.11.20 on 11.23. The error being received is:

/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: typeid__XT17SAXParseException_ (data) from /var/opt/netscape/servers/bin/https/lib/libns-httpd40.sl

Here is what we currently have in $SHLIB:

/sybase/ASE-12_5/lib:/sybase/FTS-12_5/lib:/sybase/OCS-12_5/lib:/usr/lib:/lib:/usr/lib/Motif1.2:/sybase/SQLRemote/lib::/usr/lib:/etc/opt/resmon/lib:/opt/gnome/lib:/var/opt/netscape/servers/lib:/var/opt/netscape/servers/bin/slapd/lib:/var/opt/netscape/servers/bin/https/lib:

Any help greatly appreciated and will be awared points.

Is that a typo? Correct environment variable to use is SHLIB_PATH.

Yes, I meant $SHLIB_PATH

Depending on how you compiled it, you may need to recompile it to point at the correct shared library location.

The other question of course is to check to make sure that the library in question has the correct permissions and exists at the specified path.

The perms are:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 1789952 Jun 13 2002 /var/opt/netscape/servers/bin/https/lib/libns-httpd40.sl

Everything was installed using the HP supplied depot. I assume it should not need to be recompiled.

Have you tried rearranging your path so that /var/opt/netscape directories come first?

I think these symbols are in libxerces-c.sl which is found in /var/opt/netscape/server/bin/https/lib directory. However, in your SHLIB_PATH /usr/lib comes before that directory, so /usr/lib/libxerces-c.sl is loaded instead.

/usr/lib/libxerces-c.sl is different version of the library (doesn't contain required symbols). It is installed as a part of internet express bundle.

hpuxiexpress1.Xerces-C A.03.00-2.5.0.001 Xerces-C C++ Parser

So I suggest that you try placing /var/opt/netscape directories in your SHLIB_PATH before any other directories and see if it makes any difference.

Ermin,

Adjusting the order of the netscape directories in SHLIB_PATH did the trick. Thanks for your valuable input. This is what my SHLIB_PATH looks like now:

echo $SHLIB_PATH
/var/opt/netscape/servers/lib:/var/opt/netscape/servers/bin/slapd/lib:/var/opt/netscape/servers/bin/https/lib:/usr/lib:/etc/opt/resmon/lib:/opt/gnome/lib:/lib:/usr/lib/Motif1.2:

Oz,

Thanks for your efforts as well.

This was what my path looked like prior to change:
