I don't have a comment on the rest of it, but bear in mind the Solaris
binary compatibility thing means you can run Solaris 8 binaries on 10,
Solaris 9 binaries on Solaris 11, etc. The other way around doesn't
necessarily hold.

Hi all
Encountered an interesting problem installing my Xymon client on
Solaris 9. I have solved it, but it's interesting enough that I
felt it was worth sharing with the list. And maybe get some
feedback on other approaches. The client was compiled on Solaris
10, so I was expecting the Solaris binary compatibility thing to
make it all "just work" when I copied the client to Solaris 9. But
that would be too easy. :-/
Most of the binaries gave this issue. ld.so.1:
/usr/local/xymon/client/bin/msgcache: fatal: *libresolv.so.2*:
version `SUNW_2.2.2' not found (required by file
/usr/local/xymon/client/bin/msgcache) zsh: killed
/usr/local/xymon/client/bin/msgcache
Looks like *libresolve.so.2* is missing
The library is there # grep libresolv.so.2
/var/sadm/install/contents /usr/lib/libresolv.so=./libresolv.so.2 s
none SUNWcsl */usr/lib/libresolv.so.2* f none 0755 root bin 316552
9398 1268771224 SUNWcsl
/usr/lib/sparcv9/libresolv.so=libresolv.so.2 s none SUNWcslx
/usr/lib/sparcv9/libresolv.so.2 f none 0755 root bin 385952 24889
1268771224 SUNWcslx
And we have the LD_LIBRARY_PATH set correctly. % echo
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/svrexp/dvlpr/2.2/lib:/usr/openwin/lib:*/usr/lib*:/opt/cics/lib:/opt/dcelocal/lib:/opt/encina/lib:.
So I checked to see if there was another issue, and it turns out
it can see libresolv.so.2, but wants a specific version. # ldd
/usr/local/xymon/client/bin/msgcache libresolv.so.2 =>
/usr/lib/libresolv.so.2 * libresolv.so.2 (SUNW_2.2.2) =>
(version not found)* libsocket.so.1 =>
/usr/lib/libsocket.so.1 libnsl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
librt.so.1 => /usr/lib/librt.so.1 libc.so.1 =>
/usr/lib/libc.so.1 libdl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.1 libmp.so.2
=> /usr/lib/libmp.so.2 libaio.so.1 => /usr/lib/libaio.so.1
libmd5.so.1 => /usr/lib/libmd5.so.1
/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240/lib/libc_psr.so.1
/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240/lib/libmd5_psr.so.1
Then I recalled hearing about the LD_NOVERSION parameter you can
set, which causes the the runtime linker to ignore version
requirements. A bit of reading here also helped.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19963-01/html/819-0690/docinfo.html I
added the following 2 lines to the top of the ~/client/runclient.sh
script *LD_NOVERSION=1 export LD_NOVERSION* Restarted, and it all
worked fine.
Maybe some of the programmer types can provide us with some
feedback on the correctness of this approach, or even provide a
better solution, but for now, it's working.
Regards Vernon
