Problem installing NConvert on Solaris

Post by b83503104 »

I had the following problem:
$ ./nconvert
ld.so.1: ./nconvert: fatal: relocation error: file /afs/b83503104/lib/libformat.so: symbol __sqrtf: referenced symbol not found
Killed
$

After put nconvert and libformat.so.4.16 in the right places like this:

cp lib/libformat.so.${LIBVERSION} $BASEDIR/lib
rm -f $BASEDIR/lib/libformat.so
chmod 755 $BASEDIR/lib/libformat.so.${LIBVERSION}
ln -s $BASEDIR/lib/libformat.so.${LIBVERSION} BASEDIR/lib/libformat.so

Could anyone point out what I was missing?
Thanks,
David

Which distribution do you have? Which version?

Strange some users have this problem. I don't know why.
Could you send me an email, i'll send you the previous version.

I'm having the same problem with a different application.
Can't figure out how to debug it.
When I try to use dbx where after the crash, it says the application is not longer active, and it doesn't give any info on line numbers or anything.
Any body have any ideas?

Thanks
-Ben
