The following has be reported by IBM LTC: Compatibility libraries are not installed by default in WS edition Hardware Environment: Intellistation 2-way, 550Mhz, 1gb ram Software Environment: RedHat Enterprise Linux v3, WS edition Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RHEL 3, take basically the defaults (I added in some dev stuff and selected KDE as default manager) 2. ls -la /usr/lib/libstdc++* 3. Note that only the one for gcc 3.2.3 is there, the compatibility ones are missing Also, the libdb compat library is also not installed by default. This may or may not be a bug, but I seem to recall in the betas that these did get installed by default. Maybe I'm mis-remembering. They are present on disc 3, and after installing them I was able to get WebSphere AppServer to run (We have native embedded products that depend on the older version of C++ and db). Can you tell me if they are supposed to be installed by default or not? If not, then We'll need to document it in Websphere AppServer for customers to be able to correctly install and config. Actual Results: Expected Results: Additional Information:Glen/Greg - please submit this issue to Red Hat. Thanks.
No, the legacy compatibilty libraries are not intended to be installed by default. They should only be added to the system by customers as needed for running applications which may have been built on older releases.
