Bad system id for shared library

[d'arco]

Hi Procura,

with your help I installed libpng depot under UX 10.20.

I could finish the installation of the product which you do not like.

When I start it (xemacs) I have the following error :
"
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Bad system id for shared library: /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Exec format error
"

The model of my workstation is : 9000/779/C160L

Do I need to recompile something ?

Run file command on /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl and let us know the result.

Hi,

I can not execute /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl
when do it, I have the following error :
"sh: /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl: Execute permission denied."

the properties are :
lrwxrwxr-x 1 root sys 11 Sep 20 23:12 libpng.sl -> libpng.sl.3
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 17 Sep 20 19:30 libpng.sl.3 -> libpng.sl.3.1.2.7
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 242331 Oct 4 2004 libpng.sl.3.1.2.7

I am root. I don't know how to execute libpng.sl ???

You can't execute a shared library. It is library file (/opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl). Dynamically linked executables will pick shared libararies automatically if they are in library path.

Export SHLIB_PATH to /opt/libpng/lib location and try to start it.

hth.

[d'arco]

I set $SHLIB_PATH to /opt/libpng/lib and when I start xemacs, I have the following error :

"/usr/lib/dld.sl: Invalid shared library file: /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl
Abort(coredump)"

I am not sure that it is this information which you want?

[Arunvijai_4]

Send us output of

# file
# file /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl
# chatr /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl

Hi,

It may 32 & 64 bit problem. Just find it 32 bit libpng.sl or 64 bit libpng.sl?

# file /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl

you may need 32 bit /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl.

Thanks.

I have no path for xemacs.

Where did you get libpng.sl from? It looks like a 64-bit version.

[d'arco]

Hi,

Procura give me the depot for libpng.

I don't konw if it is a 32 or 64-bit !!

[Arunvijai_4]

I am not sure your /opt/libpng/lib/libpng.sl is a 64 bit library. It is 32 bit but, it is for PA2.0 shared library. I think, it wont work on your 10.20 since it will support only PA-RISC1.1 libraries, Xemacs executable is PA-RISC1.1. Ask procura to provide PA-RISC1.1 compatible library. (+DA1.1 will do while compiling)

[Muthukumar_5]

ibpng.sl: PA-RISC2.0 shared library -not stripped It is not related with xemacs: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked.

I hope you are using wrong libpng.sl library. Try to build with PA-RISC1.1 compiler option.

hth.

[d'arco]

Hi,

Procura indicated the good shared library to be used.

Now I have a problem with Xemacs (path, configuration,.....). When I start Xemacs I have the following error :

WARNING:
Couldn't find an obvious default for the root of the
XEmacs hierarchy.
WARNING:
Couldn't find obvious defaults for:
doc-directory
data-directory
exec-directory
Perhaps some directories don't exist, or the XEmacs executable,
/usr/local/bin/xemacs
is in a strange place?Cannot open load file: /opt/bintmp/xemacs-21.1.14/lisp/auto-autoloads




Do Anyone know the problem ???

[Arunvijai_4]

I think, its a known problem of Xemacs with HP-UX. Just go through this link, http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200109/msg00345.html
and read followup http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200109/msg00352.html.

It says, you need to compile again on your system.

I finally found a similar thread in ITRC,

(Just try to create symlinks where it is needed)

you are trying to use PA2.0 versions on PA1.1 (hpux 10.20). you need the PA1.1 (hpux 10.20) versions of the depots.
