error while loading shared libraries: libxerces-c.so.26: cannot open shared

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm trying to install SRM-MDM Catalog 2.0 under SUSE_LINUX Enterprise Server 10 (x86_64).

First to all I'm trying to install Server part. So I navigate under the CD installation: /Master_Data_Server/LINUX_X64/MDM/bin/ and then execute ./mds-r.

The following error appears: error while loading shared libraries: libxerces-c.so.26: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

libxerces-c.so.26 is located under /Master_Data_Server/LINUX_X64/MDM/lib/

Could you please help me?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Guillermo

From the sound of things, you are trying to run MDM directly off the installation media. You can't do this - you need to install the software correclty. Look for a "sapinst" executable on the media and run it.

Hi Mark, Yes! I was very surprised because I didn't found sapinst anywhere. Maybe I didn't download software correctly, so I supposed that MDS-R and MDIS-R should be executed from scratch.

The CD installation contains:

- Business_Content

- Gui_Clients

- JAVA_API

- MDM_CLIX

- MDM_WEB_UI

- Master_Data_Server:After unzip content it contains MDS-R and MDIS-R, Operating Sistem Dependent.

- SRM-MDM_Catalog_UI

- other archives: .ASC, .TXT, .EBC...

Sorry but I don't find sapinst anywhere. Should I download aditional Software... Could you kindly show how to start the installation process??

Thanks,

Hi,

I am sure that MDM 5.5 on windows is not installed using SAPinst... new version of MDM 7.1 is installed using SAPinst.

I guess you are installing MDM 5.5 as part of SRM-MDM Catalog 2.0. So, i am not sure it this is applicable to you as you are installing on AIX.

Hi Guillermo,

I never did installation of MDM 5.5 over Linux, but you can check MDM 5.5 Installation guide using below link

https://websmp209.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001119842007E

Also, check Setting Environment Variables for MDM Server on page no 18 of above document.

Hope this help..

Hi Guillermo,

I have one comment; its not related to your problem but i thought it will be useful..

SRM-MDM Catalog 2.0 is based on MDM 5.5, but just for your information MDM 5.5 is out of standard maintainence now. So, i would suggest you to install SRM-MDM Catalog 3.0 which is based on MDM 7.1instead of SRM-MDM Catalog 2.0.

Thanks for your comment Shiv, Yes I know that MDM 5.5 is out of standard maintainence but anyway our business scenario requires SRM-MDM 2.0.

If anyone finds the same error I mentioned, It has been solved using ldconfig -v in the library directory of choice.

I'd like to ask another issue: Right now We have the following error after executing ./mdis-r or ./mds-r:

Could not open language resource file "LangStrings/ImportManagerCommon.lang". Try setting the MDM_HOME environment variable.

Could you please help me how to do if?

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

open the MDS.INI file and MDIS.INI file in the MDS and MDIS instalaltion directory and check the path for "String Resource Dir" parameter. It should point to <Server installation directory>/LangStrings.

once you set the path correctly you will not get this error, because this LangStrings directory contain ImportManagerCommon.lang file. else, i think you can also set environment variable for Server installation directory.
