Unresolved symbol: ldap_get_option (code) from ./ldapsearch

[10ft]

I installed LDAP-UX Integration on 11.11i
when i try to configure with command:
/opt/ldapux/config/setup

the command fails with this echo
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: ldap_get_option (code) from ./ldapsearch

the output of :

ldd ldapsearch
=>
/usr/lib/libc.2 => /usr/lib/libc.2
/usr/lib/libdld.2 => /usr/lib/libdld.2
/usr/lib/libc.2 => /usr/lib/libc.2

I tried to set te variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/ldapux/lib
but nothing appened ...


the output of same command in an another workstation is:

in this workstation all works.


Thanks ;-)

Few things to poke at.

swverify \* make sure there are no problems with the ldap installation if it was installed from hp depots.

Check the SHLIB_PATH environment variable.

If its not correctly set these kind of errors are common. Modify it or set it to include at least:

SHLIB_PATH=/usr/lib:$SHLIB_PATH
export SHLIB_PATH

leave off the $SHLIB_PATH if not already set. You can check current settings with the echo command

echo $SHLIB_PATH.

If all that checks out, see if the ldap binaries compare in filesize and checksum to a working system.

I think that /usr/lib/libldap.sl is culprit. This library contains ldap_get_option symbol.

# nm /usr/lib/libldap.sl | grep ldap_get_option

ldap_get_option | 131244|extern|entry |
ldap_get_option | 131316|extern|code |$CODE$
ldap_get_option | 250652|uext |stub |

I'm guessing that on your system this library has somehow been replaced. You can check this with swverify.

# swverify -v J4269AA

/opt/ldapux/bin/ldapsearch is linked with /usr/lib/libldap.sl, which is in turn linked with libraries in /opt/ldapux/lib. That would explain why you don't see libraries from /opt/ldapux/lib in the output of ldd on the system that throws the error.

LDAP-UX will not configure when you try to do as /opt/ldapux/config/setup.

Try do as,

cd /opt/ldapux/config/
./setup

It will not be using relative path there.

Try to export shared library path as,

export SHLIB_PATH=/opt/ldapux/bin

If you try execute,

/opt/ldapux/bin/ldapsearch

it will work there. It will be executing exact share library path location there when your execute from relative path.

HTH.
