Solaris NRPE agent problems with libc.so.1

[dennisj_fresno]

I am having the exact problem listed in this post - http://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtop ... 89&p=32382

It mentions recompiling but I'm not sure if I can do that since I downloaded the package already compiled. I couldn't seem to find the source code. Am I missing something?

I suppose the other option would be to apply Solaris patches to try and get the required version of libc.so.1. I'd rather not do that if I can avoid it.

Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

This is being installed on a Solaris 10 SPARC system. The NRPE package was downloaded from - http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ent.tar.gz

So to clarify, starting nrpe has the libc issue, or check_disk does? If it's just check_disk, the plugins are super easy to rebuild and can be done from either tar or git cloning depending on your preference.

[dennisj_fresno]

Good point, here it is actually starting nrpe where the problem happens, which I guess is a little bit different. Here is the message -

[ Apr 18 17:03:10 Method "start" exited with status 137 ]
[ Apr 18 17:03:10 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/nrpe start") ]
ld.so.1: nrpe: fatal: libc.so.1: version `SUNW_1.22.7' not found (required by file /opt/nagios/bin/nrpe)
ld.so.1: nrpe: fatal: libc.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory

OK, so since it is actually nrpe and not the plugins, although likely they have the same issue. You really do only have the options of recompiling nrpe or updating your system with that file and its dependencies.
