Description of problem: net-snmpd wasn't originally installed, after "up2date net-snmp" and trying to start /etc/init.d/snmpd start I get the following error message: Starting snmpd: /usr/sbin/snmpd: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libnetsnmpmibs.so.5: undefined symbol: netsnmp_TCPIPv6Domain it's possible that related package/library wasn't installed on this particular systems, but there was no rpm dependancy problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: The problem appears only on two RHEL4 systems installed identically with limited set of rpm packages, all other systems we have run snmpd without this problem. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: snmpd doesn't start Expected results: snmpd to start Additional info:
Which version of net-snmp do you have? Are you running SELinux? Did you modified snmpd.conf file? How?
net-snmp is the one distributed with RHEL4 - net-snmp-5.1.2-11.EL4.6 SELinux is configured in "permissive" mode I did some changes, but I've tried with the standard snmpd.conf, I also downloaded and recompiled net-snmp source rpm and it gives me the same error message.
Do you have net-snmp-libs installed? rpm -q net-snmp-libs
net-snmp-libs is installed as well, net-snmp-perl-5.1.2-11.EL4.6 net-snmp-5.1.2-11.EL4.6 net-snmp-utils-5.1.2-11.EL4.6 net-snmp-libs-5.1.2-11.EL4.6 net-snmp-devel-5.1.2-11.EL4.6
I am sorry nobody took care of this bug. I am new maintainer of net-snmp an I am cleaning old bugs. Are you still able to reproduce the bug in latest RHEL 4.5 update?
we only have have the problem on two of our RHEL 4 systems, it persists after all recent RHEL4 updates, I've tried even to recompile snmp but the same result. All our other installations properly start snmpd We should reinstall with RHEL5, which I presume will fix the problem I think you can close this Tt BTW, there is another problem with the latest update of net-snmp 5.1.2 in RHEL4 the startup command is OPTIONS="-Lsd -Lf /dev/null -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -a" and we'd like to suppress the logging of the snmp queries, so the following doesn't work on RHEL4 but work on RHEL5: #OPTIONS="-Lf /dev/null - p /var/run/snmpd -a -I -smux" instead, with RHEL4 I had to use OPTIONS="-l /dev/null -p /var/run/snmpd.pid - a -I -smux"
Thank you for the info. I am closing the bug. Regarding your logging problem, I think it's already reported, see bug 241581. It should be fixed in RHEL 4.6.
