I have written a utility using OpenIPMI library on RHEL 5.5 x86_64. I build 64 bit binary and it worked without issues.
When I compiled the same code to have 32 bit binary(all dependencies resolved) and executed it, following error was thrown
Code = samples given in this doc http://openipmi.sourceforge.net/IPMI.pdf
# ./a.out smi 0
gdbm fatal: read error <<--sometimes this is lseek error instead of read.
following is the trace after putting a breakpoint in lseek.

(gdb)
Then I tried to find 32 bit openipmish(default is 64 bit on 64 bit RHEL), didn't have 32 bit images for RHEL5 so I used binaries and libraries of the same version from centOS repos(didn't install the RPMs, only extracted the files from rpms in /tmp and changed LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the new libraries).
For this configuration I got the same error.
# ./usr/bin/openipmish
> domain open test smi 0
Event
Object Type: Domain
Name: test
Operation: Add
> gdbm fatal: lseek error
#
Has anybody else faced this issue in the past?
Is it a good configuration(writing/running 32 bit IPMI programs on x64 platforms)?
Any solutions?
Thanks
