Hi Sven I have tried with set LD_DEBUG on system A . The binary is looking for libc and ld-linux librarys and while loading them on system A ld has some problem. as of your reference ld checking hashing type also (.hash or .gnuhash) now Iam planning to copy system B libraries ( mainly glibc-2.5) to system A at some location (i.e /usr/local/lib-2.5 ) and while building binary on system B and give -L /usr/local/lib-2.5 Is there any other processor ?? regards dinesh Sven Eschenberg wrote: > > Hi Dinesh, > > Well it is fairly normal to run into problems when trying to run a > progam with old libs, if it was linked to newer ones. > > If there is a command line switch, it's rather related to ld (the > linker) whose switches of course can be passed to gcc. > > To find out which switch might help and why exactly the old glibc's > dynamic linker doesn't like the executeable from system B, you can try > the following: > > set LD_DEBUG to all (export LD_DEBUG="all") > > Then run your program, and see if the linker spits out something where > exactly the problem occurs (maybe you are lucky) > > One issue could be the .hash versus .gnu.hash section ...
