Hi, I had exited from the root shell before I realised that there were problems trying to run commands. This means that I can't run ldconfig (permission denied). Also when I run ldd ls I get the following ldd: ./ls: No such file or directory strace won't work on any of the commands that I'm having problems with (basically everything except ls) and I can't modify the symlinks because I need to be root to do this and I can't su.
Am I a lost cause ? I'm not at the actual server, I am connecting though ssh. Do you know if this could affect my logging in at the console if I was to go to the building where the server is ? many thanks -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jonathan Bartlett Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 7:35 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: glibc compilation--Help needed! > I installed glibc-2.2.4 and the configuration, make & make install said that > the installation was successful. > However, now whe I run any commands such as ls-l, su etc.. all I get is a > segmentation fault. > Is there a way of fixing this or reversing it as I can't leave it as it is > now. Hmmm... have you tried ldconfig? Also try running 'ldd ls' and see what it puts out. If strace works, strace output could help You could also go in and modify the glibc symlinks in /lib to point to the old versions if they are still there. What version were you upgrading from?
