Upgraded OES 24.2 nit service does not start (lib problem)

ppatarcsity 5 months ago

Hi All!

After upgraded OES 2018 to 23.4 offline, then patched to 24.3. eDirectory is running, but the the DNS service doesn't.

In the /var/log /messages file there are many

nitd[24787]: /usr/sbin/nitd: error while loading shared libraries: libndssdk.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The libndssdk.so.1 is in the following path:

/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib64/libndssdk.so.1

Any idea?

Where come the NIT library path from?

Regards, Peter

What do you get on issuing

ldd /usr/sbin/nitd |grep libndssdk

and

ldconfig -p |grep -i libndssdk

OES:~ # ldd /usr/sbin/nitd |grep libndssdk
        libndssdk.so.1 => not found
OES:~ # ldconfig -p |grep -i libndssdk
OES:~ #
OES:~ # cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/local/lib64
/usr/local/lib
include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
# /lib64, /lib, /usr/lib64 and /usr/lib gets added
# automatically by ldconfig after parsing this file.
# So, they do not need to be listed.

Is there a file named

/etc/ld.so.conf.d/novell-NDSbase.conf

If so, what's the content?

Try and edit novell-ndsd.conf to look like this

/opt/novell/lib64
/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib64
/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib64/nds-modules
/opt/novell/lib
/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib

Save the file, run "ldconfig" and bounce the box. Please note the the file content is from a OES2018 box. While it should be sufficient to resolve your problem someone with immediate access to a 24.3 box might want to share a current version.

Just to confirm that on OES 24.3 the novell-ndsd.conf file is identical to the one above and the NIT service runs fine.

xxxx:~ # cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/novell-ndsd.conf
/opt/novell/lib64
/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib64
/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib64/nds-modules
/opt/novell/lib
/opt/novell/eDirectory/lib
xxxx:~ # cat /etc/novell-release
